Intra-Urban Mobility, Migration, and Tenure Choice
首次将家庭流动决策分为城市内流动和迁移,并与住房产权(自有/租赁)选择联合估计,发现三者相互决定,有助于更准确分析各决策的影响因素。
This analysis develops a model in which, for the first time, households' mobility decisions are separated into intra-urban movements and migrations. These two mobility decisions and the households' tenure (own/rent) choice are estimated as part of a multinomial logit framework and are found to be jointly determined. The literature suggests that the intra-urban mobility and migration decisions are motivated by quite different factors. Consequently, by separating the two choices for the purpose of estimation, each equation can be specified more correctly. In addition, variables which affect migration can be shown to have an impact on intra-urban mobility and tenure choice which would otherwise be ignored. Copyright 1991 by MIT Press.
