Book excerpt: This dissertation research consists of the following three related essays that examine the relationship between land use, travel behavior, and labor market outcomes in the Chicago metropolitan area. The first study investigates the effect of built environment and labor market spatial structure on travel behavior, particularly considering spatial effects and residential self-selection. The second essay extends the first study in terms of focusing on the causal relationship between land use and travel behavior using a structural equation model (SEM). The third essay assesses the effect of access to employment opportunities on labor market outcomes, especially unemployment rates and household income. It is expected that these three essays provide better understanding of the connections between land use, transportation, and urban labor market outcomes and contribute to give policy implications for land use and transportation planning.
