Environmental quality is one of the most important issues faced by
contemporary urban and regional policy. Amenities such as access to
the natural environment, attractive neighbourhood characteristics
and high quality public goods and services, play a direct role in
determining where people choose to live and how much they are
willing to do so. Likewise, negative environmental conditions, such
as contamination, influence the real estate markets and the 'value'
of a region. Increasingly, regions become winners or losers based
on the quality of life they offer their inhabitants. Bringing
together a team of leading scholars, this book addresses the issues
of environmental valuation, answering questions such as: What kinds
of features matter? How large of an affect do they have? How do
they affect the spatial distribution of the population? And how
should the value that people place on their environment affect
urban and regional policy?
