Book Commuting in America III

Download or read book Commuting in America III written by Alan Pisarski and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2006 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB has released the third edition of Commuting in America. The report was prepared by author Alan E. Pisarski under a joint project of the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) and the Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP). Commuting in America III is one of the most comprehensive documents of its kind. Based on the latest census information available, it contains 155 figures, 79 tables, and some 100 "factlets" that tell the story of America's commuting trends and patterns over the last ten years. This publication will be a valuable reference for the transportation community--practitioners, researchers, and decision makers--who wish to understand how individual behavior and public policies have affected, and will continue to affect, commuting patterns. A press release and factsheets on information contained in Commuting in America III is also available.

Book Discrete Choice Methods with Simulation

Download or read book Discrete Choice Methods with Simulation written by Kenneth Train and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-06 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the new generation of discrete choice methods, focusing on the many advances that are made possible by simulation. Researchers use these statistical methods to examine the choices that consumers, households, firms, and other agents make. Each of the major models is covered: logit, generalized extreme value, or GEV (including nested and cross-nested logits), probit, and mixed logit, plus a variety of specifications that build on these basics. Simulation-assisted estimation procedures are investigated and compared, including maximum stimulated likelihood, method of simulated moments, and method of simulated scores. Procedures for drawing from densities are described, including variance reduction techniques such as anithetics and Halton draws. Recent advances in Bayesian procedures are explored, including the use of the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm and its variant Gibbs sampling. The second edition adds chapters on endogeneity and expectation-maximization (EM) algorithms. No other book incorporates all these fields, which have arisen in the past 25 years. The procedures are applicable in many fields, including energy, transportation, environmental studies, health, labor, and marketing.

Book Temporal Discrepancies in Commuting Patterns Among Marginalized Communities in the Las Vegas Area

Download or read book Temporal Discrepancies in Commuting Patterns Among Marginalized Communities in the Las Vegas Area written by Benjamin George Hand and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates three research questions: first, differences in the temporal distribution of commuters between the metropolitan areas of Las Vegas and other American cities (Phoenix and the Twin Cities). Second, differences in the temporal distribution of commuters between Traffic Analysis Zones containing casinos and those not containing casinos within Las Vegas. Third, differences in income levels between non-Hispanic/Latine White workers and workers outside that category, between Traffic Analysis Zones containing casinos and those not containing casinos within Las Vegas. The study finds statistically significant differences in temporal distribution of commuters between Las Vegas and other cities, but limited statistically significant evidence to support any differences for the latter two research questions. However, there is some evidence that suggests differences exist, warranting further research. Limitations concerning the recency of the source data and lurking or confounding variables further complicate the results, but also request further investigation of these issues. There are undoubtable differences in the commuting patterns of these communities, and more granular future research will make them clear.

Book Examining Commuting Patterns and Spatial Mismatch by Occupation and Gender

Download or read book Examining Commuting Patterns and Spatial Mismatch by Occupation and Gender written by Sunhee Sang and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This dissertation examines the disaggregate properties of journey-to-work by occupation and gender. The primary data used in this study consist of Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 from Census Transportation Planning Package (CTPP). The text and data analyses are supported by a disaggregate Spatial Interaction (SI) model approach. An intraurban journey-to-work model will be the result of disaggregate SI model approach extended to the dimension of gender and occupation. Intraurban variations in commuting patterns are explained by the spatial separation between jobs and residences and by the characteristics of commuters. Since recent interest in the Spatial Mismatch Hypothesis (SMH) concerns whether massive suburbanization happens to disadvantage to some spatial part and some population group, applications of the model are extended to address this spatial mismatch issue in relation to gender and occupation. By incorporating workers' characteristics and locational attributes into the model, the extended intraurban journey-to-work model reveals the detailed spatial structure of commuting through relating specific types of jobs and workers. This disaggregate journey-to-work model allows us to examine gender differences in commuting patterns and spatial mismatch of jobs and housing with great details at smaller zonal units than in previous studies of county or metropolitan level. This research expands the literature on commuting by extending a set of spatial modeling techniques for trip distribution estimation to a disaggregated population setting. Moreover, this research also enhances our understanding of spatial mismatch between genders by broadening the applicability of the models. The goal of this study is to understand commuting patterns by describing different spatial patterns drawn by different population groups, and to extend the application of the proposed model on spatial mismatch issue. This dissertation has the following three main objectives: (1) to disaggregate journey-to-work flow by gender and occupation of workers in order to estimate the number of commute trips between each zones; (2) to introduce a refined measure of job accessibility at each census tract and to examine variations in job accessibility among commuters, and (3) to compare the degree of spatial mismatch by gender using commuting indicators such as average distance and job accessibility.

Book An Analysis of the Relationship Between Urban Form and the Length of Commute Using Centrographic Measures

Download or read book An Analysis of the Relationship Between Urban Form and the Length of Commute Using Centrographic Measures written by Takatsugu Kobayashi and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several interurban and intraurban commuting studies have examined the relationship between urban form and the length of commute. This relationship has been analyzed in terms of agglomeration externalities, competition for land rents, spatial distributions of residences and employment, and households' location decisions and mobility status, among other factors. Understanding the relationship of urban form and the length of commute is important because it enables planners and policy makers to forecast changes in commuting patterns.
