Résumé
Despite improvements in asthma symptom management and asthma morbidity, the prevalence of asthma in the United States remains high, especially in underresourced communities. Our goal was to determine whether housing renovations affect the prevalence of asthma in an underresourced community. The Fay Apartments (~800 units) in Cincinnati, Ohio, were renovated to "green building" standards between 2010 and 2012 and renamed the Villages at Roll Hill. The prevalence of asthma among 7-year-olds in the Villages at Roll Hill was determined by accessing Ohio Medicaid data for the years 2013 to 2021. In the first 6 years after the renovations (2013-2018), the prevalence of asthma among 7-year-olds in the community averaged 12.7%. In contrast, in postrenovation years 7 through 9 (2019-2021), the average prevalence of asthma was 5.9%. Logistic regression modeling for the log odds of asthma diagnosis in this age group was used to test the statistical significance of asthma prevalence for 2013-2018 versus for 2019-2021.

Background
UNASSIGNED
Despite improvements in asthma symptom management and asthma morbidity, the prevalence of asthma in the United States remains high, especially in underresourced communities.
Objective
UNASSIGNED
Our goal was to determine whether housing renovations affect the prevalence of asthma in an underresourced community.
Methods
UNASSIGNED
The Fay Apartments (~800 units) in Cincinnati, Ohio, were renovated to "green building" standards between 2010 and 2012 and renamed the Villages at Roll Hill. The prevalence of asthma among 7-year-olds in the Villages at Roll Hill was determined by accessing Ohio Medicaid data for the years 2013 to 2021.
Results
UNASSIGNED
In the first 6 years after the renovations (2013-2018), the prevalence of asthma among 7-year-olds in the community averaged 12.7%. In contrast, in postrenovation years 7 through 9 (2019-2021), the average prevalence of asthma was 5.9%. Logistic regression modeling for the log odds of asthma diagnosis in this age group was used to test the statistical significance of asthma prevalence for 2013-2018 versus for 2019-2021. The model resulted in demonstration of a significant (
Conclusions
UNASSIGNED
The renovation of an underresourced community's housing resulted in a lower prevalence of asthma for 7-year-olds who were born after the renovations had been completed.
