Description :
This article examines social interaction location choice through a latent class modeling in Eindhoven region in the Netherlands. A latent class multinomial logit model is used to segment respondents in terms of their social activity location choices. Latent class membership can be explained by household and personal time-use characteristics as well as characteristics of the residential environment, and satisfaction with local facilities. The findings could provide useful information for local governments and planners regarding the importance of public facilities for social interaction of various segments of the population to support individual well-being and neighborhood livability.
