Book Affluence  Mobility and Second Home Ownership

Download or read book Affluence Mobility and Second Home Ownership written by Chris Paris and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-10-04 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the current recession, the frequency of second home ownership is still surprisingly high throughout the western world. While the UK and Ireland previously had lower occurrences of multiple dwellings compared to the rest of Europe, they are quickly catching up with a current surge in the ownership of second homes. The recent MP expenses scandal in the UK has also drawn attention to the prevalence of second homes (or more) within the middle classes, and the fact that the concept is becoming increasingly popular. Chris Paris uses this text to address the reasons behind why second homes are becoming more popular, both within the usual domicile of the individuals, and in international locations. The socioeconomic factors and historical contexts of homes in cultures across the world are fundamental to explaining the choices in transnational home ownership, and Paris’ case studies and comparisons between additional homes in Europe, Australia, America and Asia expand upon the motivation for people to own a second home. Affluence, Mobility and Second Home Ownership draws together debates on gentrification, globalisation, consumerism, environmental factors and investment to provide a balanced look at the pros, and cons, of second home ownership, and what implications it has for the future. An ideal text for students studying geography, urbanism and planning, this book is also of interest to individuals interested in the changing ways in which we make choices on our places of residence.

Download or read book Population Issues written by Leo J.G. van Wissen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume marks the end of an eight-year program of research on population issues, launched in 1990 by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research: The NWO Priority Program on Population Issues. Initiatives for this program of research were taken over ten years ago by Hans Van Ginkel-who became the first program chair - and Dirk Van De Kaa. The Dutch community of population scientists is deeply indebted to them for their early efforts. At the time, the program carried the name "Between Individual Development and Social Solidarity: Pop ulation and Society in a Period of Transition. " The goals of the Priority Program were threefold: To reduce the fragmentation of research on population issues; to increase collabora tion among population researchers with different disciplinary back grounds; and to strengthen the position of population studies in Dutch academe and in international forums. Looking back over eight years of programed research, we can safely say that the Priority Program has given an enormous impetus to population research in the Netherlands - as this volume attests. This program of research could not have been carried out success fully without the valuable contributions and constructive input of a large group of scientists. The scope and the focus of the Priority Program were defined by a preparatory committee chaired by Gerard Frinking.

Book Accessory Apartments in Single family Housing

Download or read book Accessory Apartments in Single family Housing written by Martin Gellen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the reproduction cost of housing has increased, consumers have made intensive use of existing dwellings. Conversions of the housing stock have regained prominence as a source of supply. This book introduces the accessory apartment and assesses its potential as an emerging resource for meeting local and national housing needs. Although accessory apartments help meet some of the nation's housing needs, they are not entirely without problems. Some of these are environmental problems, such as physical alterations that are out of character with the design and appearance of surrounding structures, while other problems are cultural and ideological. The accessory apartment in a single-family house deviates from the image of housing, family, and neighborhood that prevails in American culture. It symbolizes a change in the way the single-family house is used and the kinds of people who live in it. These changes clash with the traditional meanings attached to the categories of residential zoning. Martin Gellen evaluates and answers the following questions throughout the text: How do we live with accessory apartments? Control their number? Ensure their soundness?--and maintain neighborhood standards? He focuses on the physical planning problems of conversions and examines the zoning issues they raise. This includes a realistic appraisal of the purposes of density and occupancy controls in exclusive single-family districts. The author provides new methods for regulation of density and occupancy which permit more flexible use of single-family housing to meet the housing needs of a more diverse population. Whether in an aging suburb or new tract, the accessory apartment is a current challenge. This book provides a clear headed approach toward a popular trend in the ever changing housing industry.

Book Residential Mobility and Ozone Exposure in the San Francisco Bay Area

Download or read book Residential Mobility and Ozone Exposure in the San Francisco Bay Area written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although a large social science literature has focused on pollutionÃØâ'Ơâ"Øs influence on property values, less emphasis has been placed on residential mobility responses to pollution. However, the literature has not addressed two questions. First, when homeowners move and buy bigger homes, do they expose themselves to more ozone pollution? Second, do homeowners try to avoid extended ozone exposure by reducing the time between moves? If we can address each question using information about individual moving decisions, we can better understand the distributional consequences of environmental policy and learn more about the extent of ozone avoidance behavior. This study uses a new micro data set that combines Bay Area housing sales, buyer characteristics, and monitor-level ozone concentrations. Individual buyers can be followed as they move from their old house to a new house and individual houses can be tracked with the buyerÃØâ'Ơâ"Øs race and income and the houseÃØâ'Ơâ"Øs year-by-year ozone concentrations. The research suggests that conditional on moving and buying more housing services, poor minority homeowners frequently ÃØâ'ƠÅ"payÃØâ'ƠÂ for the additional housing services by taking on more ozone exposure. There is also evidence that after people move, they reduce the time between moves as ozone pollution gets worse relative to other Bay Area houses. As a result, the scope of ozone averting actions homeowners use to avoid ozone exposure may extend beyond common day-to-day responses such as reducing the time spent outdoors.
