Accessibility models and residential location

Abstract

Many residential location models have been developed within the context of long-range transportation planning programs and tend to explain housing consumer behavior largely in terms of minimizing the journey to work. This article questions the preeminence of accessibility in the residential location process and offers empirical evidence that neighborhood considerations are more important to residential locators than accessibility to place of work. It concludes with some recommendations for future modeling activity.
