Why do higher-income households choose low-income neighbourhoods? Pioneering or thrift?
  • Why do higher-income households choose low-income neighbourhoods? Pioneering or thrift?
  • Household ; Housing ; Housing cost ; Income ; Neighbourhood ; Preference ; Residential choice ; Service ; Social geography ; United States of America
  • This paper offers several hypotheses about which US higher-income households choose to move into low-income neighbourhoods and why. It first explores whether the probability that a household moves into a relatively low-income neighbourhood (an RLIN
  • move) varies with predicted household and metropolitan area characteristics.Secondly, it estimates a residential choice model to examine the housing and neighbourhood preferences of the households making such moves. Thirdly, it explores responses
  • to survey questions about residential choices. Evidence is found that households who place less value on neighbourhood services and those who face greater constraints on their choices are more likely to make an RLIN move. No evidence is found that households
  • making RLIN moves are choosing neighbourhoods that are more accessible to employment. Rather, it is found thathouseholds making RLIN moves appear to place less weight on neighbourhood amenities than other households and more weight on housing costs.

  • Behaviour ; Children ; Education ; Ethnic composition ; Family ; Neighbourhood ; Neighbourhood effect ; Netherlands (The) ; School achievement ; Urban area
  • This article analyses neighbourhood effects on school achievement through the mediating effect of parenting and problematic behavior in the Netherlands. The results show that the effects of the proportion of immigrant groups and the mean property
  • values in the neighbourhood are unlikely to be mediated by parenting behaviours and problematic behaviour. They also show that parents are likely to adapt their parenting behaviours to demographic neighbourhood characteristics. For example, parents
  • in neighbourhoods with higher ethnic heterogeneity apply more protective parenting strategies.
The relationship between self-reported definitions of urban neighbourhood and respondent characteristics : a study of Cardiff, UK
  • The relationship between self-reported definitions of urban neighbourhood and respondent characteristics : a study of Cardiff, UK
  • Cardiff ; Definition ; Employment ; Gender ; Location ; Neighbourhood ; Proximity ; Spatial analysis ; United Kingdom ; Urban area ; Wales ; Workplace
  • This paper investigates the relationships between neighbourhoods defined by people living or working in Cardiff. Young and retired people both have the largest neighbourhoods, possibly because both have more time to spend in their local area than
  • other age groups. Gender differences were evident in the neighbourhoods of respondents who both live and work in an area, with females having larger neighbourhoods than males; this may reflect the types of employment undertaken by females who live
  • and work in the same place. People living or working in close spatial proximity did not necessarily share the same neighbourhood definitions despite having similar personal characteristics.
