INTRODUCTION l
It has long been recognized by those who are concerned with the acuteness of the housing prob- E
lem that basic data must first be made available about structural conditions, population, incomes, i
rents, and facilities before a solution can be attempted. Such information can best be obtained by . 2
making a survey of real property. The lack of private funds for research of the nature and scope i
of a real property survey has been a great factor in retarding the attack on the housing problem. l
The availability of relief workers of the white collar class who could serve as enumerators and l
tabulators of the desired data has provided a unique opportunity to ottain this vital information,
vhile furnishing these workers with an occupation suitable to their standards and training.
A standard set of instructions for carrying out real property surveys, entitled Technique for a ( »
Real Rropejty Survey, was developed in lQ35 through the co-operative effort of the then Works Frog- `
ress Administration, the Central Statistical Board, and the Federal Housing Administration. This '
uniform technique, which provides for the proper training of personnel, checking of enumerations, "
reviewing of schedules, and careful organization of the tabulations and map work, has made it pos- i
sible to collect similar data in all parts of the United States for dealing with a problem which l
has definite national scope.
Secause of the growing demand for these factual data on the part of awakening civic groups, T
and the recognized need for improved holsing, the North Carolina State Planning Poard, in ls3%, I
submitted for approval to the Work Projects Administration a project proposing to make a complete
study of land use, real property, and low—income families in several forth Carolina cities and {
towns, of which High Point was one. E .
Following the standard procedure for real property inventories, tre entire city was enumerated E
by blocks. A sheet was prepared for each block on which the area measurements and descriptions of
the use of every plot of land and every structure were listed. This information furnished on the Q _
block lists, when mapped, constitutes the land use survey, and should be of value to the community i
in formulating zoning policies, and in the location of future enterprise and construction. I
Every dwelling unit on each block was canvassed and a real property schedule was filled in for
each dwelling covering the detailed data which, later tabulated by blocks and then for the city as A
a whole, served as the basis for the analysis attempted in this report. These data show, among ,
other things, the type and constrxction of all dwellings in the city, their condition and age, and v
the presence or absence of modern conveniences, such as plumbing, central heating, and electric I
lighting. They also indicate the number, age, and race of persons who occupy the city’s dwellings, ,
the duration of such occupancy, and the presence of roomers or extra families in the household. ,
This constitutes the dwelling survey. The tabulation of the information on the real property
schedules was assembled in 98 tables. ln addition to the information thus made available for every
block in the city, as well as for the city as a whole, a series of maps was prepared in connec-
tion with the dwelling survey, uhich ·~.· graphically presents each of the significant housing factors
° surveyed.
, The real property schedules were checked as soon as they were enumerated and examined for fac-
tors which would determine the adequacy or inadequacy of a dwelling. Those dvellings designated
as inadequate or substandard by this check were re—enumerated for data on the families they housed.
Following a separate technique, entitled the Low Income Housing Area Suryey, set up as a standard
procedure by the same federal agencies responsible for the real property survey technique, with the .
assistance of the United States Housing Authority, the data on low—income families furnished by this
second enumeration were treated as a separate survey. The low—income family schedules, after their
onumcration had been checked, were coded and transcribed to data cards from which l47 tables were
derived.
  ·

 _/   Y···   ·-—v   A»»V I .     _4,,_.  
· g Actual work on the state project was begun in Raleigh in October 1938, and the survey opened
I the High Point unit in June 1939, for the duration of the land use survey and the enumeration of
Q the dwelling and low-income family schedules, as well as the preliminary checking of these activi-
§ ties. ln most cases, the higher operations involved in the surveys (thorough checking of schedules,
E coding, tabulating, and mapping) were performed at the state office of the project in Raleigh.
g The co—operation of the city of High Point in furnishing office space, equipment, supplies, forms,
Q; and other necessary materials, as well as consultants, made it possible, upon the completion of
E preliminary operations in October 1939, to select High Point as an additiona1'field center for the
§ performance of the higher operations. The schedules for the city of Greensboro, as well as those
E for High Point, were here checked, coded, and tabulated. In addition, some of the necessary map
‘ `¥ work was completed in the High Point center. By April 1940, the tabulations were completed and sent
’j for analysis to the state headouarters of the project in Raleigh, where the remaining maps and
" g charts were also completed. In all, some 50 persons, white and Negro, taken from the local relief
E_ rolls, were employed as field enumerators, clerical workers, coders, tabulators, and draftsmen in
c E the High Point field center.
g The tabulations of the housing data, prepared in separate volumes, aredesigned to present the
I Q exact results of the enumeration in as lucid a manner as possible. The maps are included here in
5 the brief analysis of this statistical information.
4 Q. The interest in the housing situation led to the creation of a local Housing Authority in High
;i Point in 1039. On the basis of preliminary survey figures, the United States Housing Authority
- §_ appropriated $1,528,000 toward the construction of 250 dwelling units for white families and 200
F for Negro families with low incomes. The rentals and income limits of eligibility to residence in
f these units will be established by analyzing the results of the low-income family survey. lt is
E hoped that the results of the survey will continue to contribute to the future planning and develop-
{ ment of High Foint, as well as to any extension of the plans for ameliorating those social ills
4 j, commonly acknowledged as the conoomitants of a housing problem.
4, Q The materials and results of the project will be distributed as follows:
E Basic real property schedules, copies of block tabulations, general tabu1ations,aand correlation
* _; tables derived from the general tabulations will be turned over to the city. Rasic schedules for
jg low—income family data and copies of the tabulations derlved from these schedules will be filed with
·€ the High Point Housing Authority. Presentation maps and land use maps will be given the city for
fg the use of the city engineer. Copies of the final report will be filed with interested public de-
N_ partments and institutions.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND  
Although Guilford County, in which High Point is situatsd, was originally Q
ssttlsd by Quaksrs somstims around l750, ths city itsslf datss back only to ths 1
l850's. At that tims ths stats built ths North Carolina and Midland railroad and i
sst out a town sits at ths highsst point on ths lins bstwssn Goldsboro and Charlotts, é »
naming ths nsw town High Point for this gsographical distinction. `
Ths nsw town, with its nsarnsss to ths railroad and its situation on what E
was thsn ths most important sast—»sst ·~»· highway in ths stats, had csvslopsd as a trad- _

upholstsrsd housshold furniturs, and also of offics and misosllansous furniturs. In
addition, ssvsral hundrsd worksrs ars sngagsd locally in ths procsssing of lumbar in
