Assume that developers are assessing the need to open a new housing development in your community. They have presented this proposal to your local community board and are anticipating feedback at the next community board meeting. In response to this proposal, a local community-based organization is planning to rebut this proposal but need evidence that this will not be in the best interest of the community at this time.

Develop a research question that the community group is likely to use to test the lack of suitability of this housing development for the community.

List five independent variables and the dependent variable that you would use in this research.

State the hypotheses for each independent variable.

What is a possible secondary data source that you would use to complete your research? Tell the developers what you anticipate the study will reveal.
