Household Location and Race: Estimates of a Multinomial Logit Model
估计了一个家庭区位选择的多项Logit模型，发现白人和黑人家庭的区位选择受社会经济特征影响不同，黑人郊区化模式受家庭特征模拟变化影响很小，表明提升黑人教育和收入的政策对促进白人郊区社区融合效果有限。
A multinomial logit model of household location choice, in which families choose from a number of mutually exclusive residential location, is estimated. Regression results indicate that the locational choices of white and black households are importantly, but differently, affected by their socioeconomic characteristics; in that regard, black suburbanization patterns are little influenced by large simulated changes in household characteristics. Findings suggest that policies which focus on the educational and earnings opportunities of blacks would likely be largely ineffectual in fostering the integration of predominantly white suburban communities.
