Since then she has been a member of the Department of Geography and Planning and a Research Associate of Center for Social and Demographic Analysis (CSDA) at University at Albany, State University of New York (SUNY). Her research has focused on two areas: housing and migration. In the area of housing, Dr. Huang’s research has focused on housing consumption, residential mobility, housing inequality and residential segregation, low-income housing, and their impact on communities, commuting patterns, and urban development. In the area of migration, Dr. Huang has focused on the patterns and dynamics of migration, and how it affects migrants, their families, and origin and destination communities. She also has a regional focus on China, where profound socioeconomic and spatial transformations are taking place. She is interested in understanding the unprecedented market transition and its impact on Chinese people and places, focusing on housing, migration and urban development.
