How property taxes are affecting the Central District's Black homeowners

Seattle Now

About this episode

The rising cost of property taxes is putting pressure on homeowners, especially in historically Black neighborhoods like the Central District.

Now a local research project is highlighting how it contributes to the gentrification and displacement of Black homeowners. 

We’ll talk about that with Wa Na Wari's CACE 21 project lead researcher Dr. Kristin McCowan.
