Home-Work Separation in the Context of Institutional and Spatial Transformation in Urban China:Evidence from Beijing Household Survey Data
基于2007年北京家庭调查数据，测量居民工作地与居住地之间的直线距离，比较不同社区类型、产权类型和搬迁时段的职住距离差异，揭示转型期中国城市职住关系的制度与结构因素。
Based on data from a 2007 household survey in Beijing,this paper explores the current status of home-work separation of Beijing residents,measured by straight-line distance between job and residential locations,i.e.job-housing distance.We focus on comparing job-housing distance across different types of communities,types of property rights,and time periods when residential relocation happened,in attempt to shed light on possible institutional and structural forces underlying home-work relationships in transitional urban China.
