Mobility, Residential Location and the American Dream: The Intrametropolitan Geography of Minority Homeownership
利用华盛顿特区、芝加哥和洛杉矶的数据，估计家庭流动、居住地点和住房自有选择的三层嵌套多项逻辑模型，发现收入冲击能显著提升少数族裔的住房自有率，但其居住模式仍比白人更集中。
This article applies data from Washington, DC, Chicago and Los Angeles to estimate three‐level nested multinomial logit models of household mobility, residential location and homeownership tenure choice. Model simulation indicates that shocks to income can significantly elevate the homeownership attainment of minority households; however, their urban settlement and homeownership patterns remain substantially more concentrated than those of whites. Simulated equilibration of black economic status with that of whites results in an approximate doubling of homeownership rates among black movers to central city areas. In contrast, homeownership rates among black movers to suburban and outlying areas lag far behind those of whites.
