Subsidized Housing: The Panacea to Canada's Housing Affordability Crisis?

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Although increasing subsidized housing has been proposed as a solution to Canada's housing affordability crisis, few studies have investigated how access to subsidized housing affects the housing circumstances of Canadians. Using microdata from the 2021 Canadian Census, we compare children's odds of having unaffordable, overcrowded, and inadequate housing by residence in subsidized housing and family structure. For children in two-parent families, living in subsidized housing is associated with lower odds of having unaffordable housing but higher odds of having inadequate and overcrowded housing. For all others, living in subsidized housing is associated with lower odds of having unaffordable, inadequate, and overcrowded housing. Our findings underscore the importance of increasing subsidized housing, building units that can better meet the housing needs of those with housing vulnerability, and targeting those with the most unmet needs in alleviating Canada's housing affordability crisis.
