Commuting choices and residential built environments in Sweden, 1990–2010 : a multilevel analysis
This article uses multilevel models based on official register data covering the total Swedish working population to explore how home–work distance varied among workers and across residential areas between 1990 and 2010. The results indicate growing
variation in home–work distance for workers living in the same residential neighborhoods and that the significance of residential location for the home–work distance decreased throughout the studied period. The results may suggest that there is less scope
now than in the early 1990s for shaping commuting behavior by altering the built environment in Sweden.
