Description :
This paper tests the hypothesis that the driving factors of built intensity in rural villages in Shenzenare analogous to factors that drive land prices in the formal city. Results of multivariate regression models of the built intensity of urban villages across the city show a remarkable resemblance to hedonic models of land prices elsewhere. Location matters and access to employment, along with development constraints,are the most important determinants for the development of Shenzhen’s urban villages.
