Housing policy has long emphasized a connection between citizenship and homeownership. As a result, homeownership remains inequitably distributed in the United States by citizenship status and other individual, household, and contextual characteristics. As citizenship status shapes access to resources, social benefits, and civil rights, outlining the distribution of homeownership by citizenship status furthers understanding of inequality in the US. Using the national 2013 American Housing Survey (AHS), a multivariate logistic regression was performed to interrogate homeownership likelihood based on individual-level variables, including citizenship status. Statistically significant relationships between age, education level, marital status, race/ethnicity, and years lived in the US were found with homeownership likelihood. Not being a citizen as compared to being a US citizen exhibited a statistically significant negative relationship on homeownership likelihood. Future research should incorporate additional household and contextual variables as well as disaggregate samples by more nuanced legal statuses.
