Job Moving, Residential Moving, and Commuting: A Search Perspective

چکیده
We address the interrelationships between residential mobility, labor market mobility, and commuting. The paper takes its starting point in recent findings in economic research which emphasise that job and residence relocation decisions imply forward-looking decision making. We examine job and residential mobility by means of bivariate models and interpret the outcomes in light of the search model.

متن کاملCommuting and Reimbursement of Residential Relocation Costs
We develop an equilibrium job search model in which employees incur commuting costs, and residential relocation is costly. We demonstrate that firms partially compensate workers for the incurred relocation costs to avoid paying compensation for commuting costs when house prices do not fully compensate the commuting costs. Taxing reimbursement of relocation costs at a higher rate than reimbursem...
متن کاملLocation Choice and Commuting Behavior in Cities with Decentralized Employment*
This paper explores residential and job location patterns and commuting behavior in a monocentric urban model with decentralized employment. We show that, in some cases, identical households choose different residential rings depending on their workers’ job locations. This means that high-income households whose workers work near the central business district (CBD) may choose residential locati...

متن کاملThe Influence of Expected Suburbanization on Urban Form and the Journey to Work
Standard urban models assume residents never think about their next job. More likely, the individual value of a given home and the choice of commute length are based not only on the current job site, but also on the expectation of where future jobs will be and the likelihood of both job separations and residential moves. The first factor lessens the value of access to the present job, while the...
