The Devil Is in the Details: Linking Home Buyout Policy, Practice, and Experience After Hurricane Sandy
Open accessAbstract
Federal housing recovery policy bounds many of the decisions made by households after a disaster. Within this policy domain, home buyout programs are increasingly used to encourage residents to permanently relocate out of areas considered at risk for future hazards. While buyouts offer homeowners and governments potential benefits, research exploring the impacts of these policies is limited. In this paper, we present an in-depth examination of the community experience of buyouts, a perspective that is noticeably lacking in the literature. Using data from two mixed-method empirical studies, we explored the implications of buyout program design and implementation for Oakwood Beach, New York, a community offered a buyout after Hurricane Sandy. We found that design decisions made at program conception significantly impacted participants’ experience of the buyout, including their understanding of program goals and their progression through the buyout and relocation process. We conclude with recommendations for future buyouts, including increased inclusion of affected communities in the process of and pre-event planning for recovery, along with recommendations for future research.

Natural areas are significantly cooler than the rest of the city, and so disparities in park access have consequences for heat exposure and health.
“Moreover, a report from Natural Areas Conservancy found that natural areas are significantly cooler than the rest of the city, and so disparities in park access have consequences for heat exposure and health.218”
From NPCC4: Advancing climate justice in climate adaptation strategies for New York City (2024) · cites this paper as [218]
The paper’s Conclusions discuss home buyout policy and residents’ experiences after Hurricane Sandy, not urban temperatures or park access. Searches for cooler natural areas and for park access, heat exposure, and the Natural Areas Conservancy found no passage addressing the claim in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.78)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
