The field of urban economics is built on an analysis of housing
prices, land rents, housing consumption, spatial form, and other
aspects of urban residential structure. Drawing on the journal
publications and teaching notes of Professor John Yinger of
Syracuse University, Housing and Commuting: The Theory of Urban
Residential Structure presents a simple model of urban residential
structure and shows how the model's results change when key
assumptions are made more realistic. This book provides a
wide-ranging introduction to research on urban residential
structure. Topics covered range from theoretical analysis of urban
structure with different transportation systems or multiple
worksites to empirical work on the impact of local public services
on house values and the impact of racial prejudice and
discrimination on housing choices. Graduate students and scholars
who want to learn about research in urban economics will find this
book to be a good starting point.
