The Location of Service-Dependent Households in Urban Areas
将居住区位理论扩展到非就业的服务依赖型家庭，发现住房成本和前往服务设施的交通成本是区位决策的关键，服务设施会靠近这些家庭以降低客户交通成本，而贫困家庭和服务设施都受预算约束，被限制在市中心贫困社区。
This paper provides a framework for the extension of residential location theory to the case of nonworking, service-dependent households. The analysis suggests that theoretically: (1) housing costs and transportation-to-services costs are key considerations in the locational decisions of service-dependents, thus rooting them to the locus of service provision; (2) service facilities locate in close proximity to service-dependent areas of cities in order to minimize client transportation costs; and (3) both the service dependent poor and their support facilities face severe budgetary constraints on their location choices, serving to restrict them to povertyridden central city neighborhoods.
