Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of Urban Economics and Planning by : Nancy Brooks
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Urban Economics and Planning written by Nancy Brooks and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 1027 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume embodies a problem-driven and theoretically informed approach to bridging frontier research in urban economics and urban/regional planning. The authors focus on the interface between these two subdisciplines that have historically had an uneasy relationship. Although economists were among the early contributors to the literature on urban planning, many economists have been dismissive of a discipline whose leading scholars frequently favor regulations over market institutions, equity over efficiency, and normative prescriptions over positive analysis. Planners, meanwhile, even as they draw upon economic principles, often view the work of economists as abstract, not sensitive to institutional contexts, and communicated in a formal language spoken by few with decision making authority. Not surprisingly, papers in the leading economic journals rarely cite clearly pertinent papers in planning journals, and vice versa. Despite the historical divergence in perspectives and methods, urban economics and urban planning share an intense interest in many topic areas: the nature of cities, the prosperity of urban economies, the efficient provision of urban services, efficient systems of transportation, and the proper allocation of land between urban and environmental uses. In bridging this gap, the book highlights the best scholarship in planning and economics that address the most pressing urban problems of our day and stimulates further dialog between scholars in urban planning and urban economics.
Book Synopsis Alternative Real Estate Research by : Ling Hin Li
Download or read book Alternative Real Estate Research written by Ling Hin Li and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-15 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to provide insight into the "soft" side of real estate research and the interesting results and implications of the real estate research outside the traditional realm of investment/financial aspects. The book also attempts to answer what constitutes the so-called "soft-side" of real estate research if we shift our focus from the usual financial returns and investment analysis. It also attempts to address whether there is such thing as an alternative real estate research paradigm. The book also argues that research in real estate should not only be limited to land and property market performance analyses as this may greatly impair the potential research implications of various real estate studies. The book argues that such analyses take on a very myopic view of real estate research. This book will interest many who wish to learn more about the alternative aspect of real estate research which is more than just about investment analysis.
Book Synopsis Neighborhood Impacts on Suburban Housing Values by : Hadi Sucahyono

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Six categories of variables are used to explain the variations of single-family suburban housing values: housing characteristics and conditions, amenities, accessibilities, socio-economic characteristics, existing land use, and land-use regulations (zoning and comprehensive planning). Three circular buffers surrounding each single-family housing unit are utilized as neighborhood units: adjacent, medium, and large neighborhoods, with radii of 100 meters, 400 meters, and 1 mile, respectively. Socio-economic characteristics, existing land use, and zoning characteristics are converted into neighborhood units by using allocation factors based on the intersection of Census blocks and parcels data using Geographical Information Systems (GIS). Delaware County, Ohio is chosen as the case study, because it has been the fastest growing county in Central Ohio and the tenth fastest growing county in the U.S.A total number of 3144 single-family housing units are selected. The effects of neighborhood characteristics on housing values are analyzed in the individual neighborhood models and the multi-neighborhood model. The Box-Cox transformation with two parameters is applied: one for the dependent variable ([lambda]), and one for all independent variables ([mu]). The maximum log likelihood of the integrated model is achieved with the value of [lambda] = 0.30 and the value of [mu] = 0.02. The mean elasticity is used to compare the effects of each variable on housing values. We find that floor area, fire places, basement, and garage capacity have positive effects and increase housing values. The average price of housing in the neighborhood, the share of middle-income people, the share of people who drive cars to work, the share of people who work outside the county, and the share of people who works in non-agriculture activities are significant, which characterizes typical suburbanization. The share of existing residential land use and the share of land zoned for low- and medium-density residences increase housing values, due to the certainty of compatible land development. The share of land zoned for agriculture and open space decreases housing values in the suburbs, due to its restriction on development. Homeowners are willing to pay significantly more to live in an area which is comprehensively planned.

Book Synopsis Where are Poor People to Live?: Transforming Public Housing Communities by : Larry Bennett
Download or read book Where are Poor People to Live?: Transforming Public Housing Communities written by Larry Bennett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-26 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking book shows how major shifts in federal policy are spurring local public housing authorities to demolish their high-rise, low-income developments, and replace them with affordable low-rise, mixed income communities. It focuses on Chicago, and that city's affordable housing crisis, but it provides analytical frameworks that can be applied to developments in every American city. "Where Are Poor People to Live?" provides valuable new empirical information on public housing, framed by a critical perspective that shows how shifts in national policy have devolved the U.S. welfare state to local government, while promoting market-based action as the preferred mode of public policy execution. The editors and chapter authors share a concern that proponents of public housing restructuring give little attention to the social, political, and economic risks involved in the current campaign to remake public housing. At the same time, the book examines the public housing redevelopment process in Chicago, with an eye to identifying opportunities for redeveloping projects and building new communities across America that will be truly hospitable to those most in need of assisted housing. While the focus is on affordable housing, the issues addressed here cut across the broad policy areas of housing and community development, and will impact the entire field of urban politics and planning.

Book Synopsis The Geography of Opportunity by : Xavier de Souza Briggs
Download or read book The Geography of Opportunity written by Xavier de Souza Briggs and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A popular version of history trumpets the United States as a diverse "nation of immigrants," welcome to all. The truth, however, is that local communities have a long history of ambivalence toward new arrivals and minorities. Persistent patterns of segregation by race and income still exist in housing and schools, along with a growing emphasis on rapid metropolitan development (sprawl) that encourages upwardly mobile families to abandon older communities and their problems. This dual pattern is becoming increasingly important as America grows more diverse than ever and economic inequality increases. Two recent trends compel new attention to these issues. First, the geography of race and class represents a crucial litmus test for the new "regionalism"—the political movement to address the linked fortunes of cities and suburbs. Second, housing has all but disappeared as a major social policy issue over the past two decades. This timely book shows how unequal housing choices and sprawling development create an unequal geography of opportunity. It emerges from a project sponsored by the Civil Rights Project at Harvard University in collaboration with the Joint Center for Housing Studies and the Brookings Institution. The contributors—policy analysts, political observers, social scientists, and urban planners—document key patterns, their consequences, and how we can respond, taking a hard look at both successes and failures of the past. Place still matters, perhaps more than ever. High levels of segregation shape education and job opportunity, crime and insecurity, and long-term economic prospects. These problems cannot be addressed effectively if society assumes that segregation will take care of itself.

Download or read book Just Below the Line written by Korydon H. Smith and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With America on the brink of the largest number of older adults and persons with disabilities in the country’s history, the deceleration in housing production during the first decade of the twenty-first century, and a continued reliance on conventional housing policies and practices, a perfect storm has emerged in the housing industry. The lack of fit between the existing housing stock and the needs of the U.S. population is growing pronounced. Just as housing needed to be retooled at the end of WWII, the American housing industry is in dire need of change today. The South—with its high rates of poverty, older residents, residents with disabilities, extensive rural areas, and out-of-date housing policies and practices—serves as a “canary in the coal mine” for the impending, nationwide housing crisis. Just Below the Line discusses how reworking the policies and practices of the housing industry in the South can serve as a model for the rest of the nation in meeting the physical and social needs of persons with disabilities and aging boomers. Policy makers, designers, builders, realtors, advocates, and housing consumers will be able to use this book to promote the production of equitable housing nationwide. Published in collaboration with the Fay Jones School of Architecture.
