The aims of the study were to examine changes in school segregation across different types of municipalities between 1998 and 2011 in Sweden, and to explore the extent to which these changes are the consequences of school choice. Multilevel models were applied to register data using a counterfactual approach. The results showed that school…

We examine whether the legal decision to grant unitary status to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg school district, which led to the end of race-conscious student assignment policies, increased the probability that families with children enrolled in the district would move to neighborhoods with a greater proportion of student residents of the same race as…

This study examines time with children among women who remain childless in young to middle adulthood. The authors identify biologically childless women aged 25 to 44 years in the June 2004-2008 Current Population Survey, and use their subsequent time use diaries in the 2004-2009 American Time Use Survey to measure their time with children. The…

Yinger, John – American Economic Review, 1981
A model analyzing the relationships among housing values, property taxation, local services, residential mobility, voting patterns, and local government policies leads to the conclusion that changes in intergovernmental grants, rather than tax limitations, may solve current problems in housing and services use. Availablility: Secretary, 1313 21st…

The Situational Attitude Scale - Commuters (SAS-C) was employed to measure attitudes of student affairs professionals toward commuting students at the University of Maryland, College Park.

Jud, G. Donald; Watts, James M. – Economics of Education Review, 1981
A model is constructed to test the comparative effects of public schools' racial composition and academic quality on neighborhood housing prices. Empirical results suggest that a school's academic quality (measured by reading levels) is a stronger determinant of local housing costs than its racial composition. (Author/RW)

Schwirian, Kent P.; And Others – Social Forces, 1990
Data for 318 metropolitan areas confirm the Burgess model's positive relationship between social status and residential distance from the urban core. Over time, all categories of metropolitan areas moved in the predicted direction of status distribution, with stronger associations for older, larger, and more industrial cities. Contains 53…

Jud, G. Donald – 1982
To further test Charles Tiebout's suggestion that households reveal their preferences for public goods through their decisions to relocate, questionnaires were sent to the 2,290 people who bought homes in Charlotte (North Carolina) during 1977 and who were still living in the same house during the summer of 1981. Each of the 1,176 respondents…

Moore, Eric G. – 1971
The projection of enrollment changes is vital to the planning of educational facilities. However, existing methods of projecting urban populations fall short of acceptable performance because they fail to adequately take into account residential mobility. As a starting point for improving these methods, this report develops an accounting model of…

Examines housing and neighborhood satisfaction of six types of black households, including family households headed by couples, females, and males; households headed by a person aged 65 or older; and nonelderly males and females living alone.

Galster, George C.; Keeney, W. Mark – Urban Affairs Quarterly, 1988
A cross-sectional simultaneous equation model is specified whereby metropolitan-wide levels of racial residential segregation, housing discrimination, interracial occupational dissimilarities, and Black/White mean incomes are endogenous. Results support the hypothesis of mutually causal interrelationships among these phenomena. Results of policy…

Courant, Paul N.; Yinger, John – 1975
Economists have studied the effects of racial prejudice on urban residential structure using a set of models that focus on conditions at the border between the black and white areas. This paper reviews the theoretical literature on these border models and investigates their generality. Section 1 considers the border model developed by Bailey in…
