URBAN HOUSING MARKET CHANGES AS CONTEXT FOR TRANSPORT CHANGE: SOME APPROACHES TO ANALYSIS

Residential location decisions need to be explored in the context of shifts in relative incomes, intra-urban migration, the effects of changes in residential areas on social mobility and the corresponding processes of production, devaluation and reevaluation of housing sub-markets and uneven urban development. Such a context will focus attention on significant discontinuities in housing market behaviour and, accordingly, in travel and communications behaviour. These arguments are developed by reference to three inter-related approaches to the analysis of urban housing market change, and illustrated with data on housing and transport change in Melbourne, Australia. Policy implications of the arguments are developed.
