What are the current trends in housing? Is my planned project commercially viable? What should be my marketing and advertisement strategies? These are just some of the questions real estate agents, landlords and developers ask researchers to answer. But to find the answers, researchers are faced with a wide variety of methods that measure housing preferences and choices. To select and value a valid research method, one needs a well-structured overview of the methods that are used in housing preference and housing choice research. This comprehensive introduction to this field offers just such an overview. It discusses and compares numerous methods, detailing the potential limitation of each one, and it reaches beyond methodology, illustrating how thoughtful consideration of methods and techniques in research can help researchers and other professionals to deliver products and services that are more in line with residents’ needs.

Studies have shown that neighbourhood design is one of the key factors affecting the household transport mode choice. Traditionally quantitative methods have been applied to evaluate the interaction between spatial planning and household travel behaviour. This study is based on multi-method approach (a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods) to identify the key motivational and attitudinal factors and to understand the relationship between residential location choices and transport mode choice. The research adopted an innovative approach to the evaluation of this relationship compared to the more traditional direct or indirect valuation techniques. Another unique aspect of this research is the application of the Q-method. It is a research tool which can measure and show what a respondent really thinks. By conducting focus group discussions, subjective and objective survey analysis in Greater Belfast Metropolitan Area, one of the UK's most car dependent metropolitan areas, this research incorporated the different methods to evaluate the relationship between transportation and land-use planning along with the varying methods to elicit respondent's attitude and preference towards neighbourhood choice decision and travel mode choice. This study found a significant association between neighbourhood design characteristics and transport mode choice. The results show significant evidence of residential self- selection (relationship between residential location choice and travel behaviour) but the explicit causality of direction cannot be established. It implies that the conclusive statement as to whether the quality of neighbourhood environment influences travel behaviour or that travel preferences affect residential choice cannot be made based on the multi-method approach used in this research. Overall, neighbourhood safety and proximity to friends and relatives were found to be the most important residential area factors. Generally, residents give more preference to housing unit features rather than neighbourhood design factors in the residential location decision. The study confirms that people select their neighbourhood according to the set of attitudes. For example people with a pro-public transport attitude select the neighbourhood with greater PT access, in contrast, people with a car dominant attitude prefer neighbourhoods with open space and tranquillity. Quantitative analysis reveals that trip frequencies are mostly associated with household socio-demographic factors whereas trip length is associated with neighbourhood design characteristics.

"Most Western national governments aim to influence individual travel patterns - at least to some degree - through the spatial planning of residential areas. Nevertheless, the extent to which the characteristics of the built environment influence travel behaviour remains the subject of debate among travel behaviour researchers. This work addresses the role of residential-self-selection, an important issue within this debate. Households may not only adjust their travel behaviour to the built environment where they live, but they may also choose a residential location that corresponds to their travel-related attitudes. The empirical analysis in this thesis is based on data collected through an internet survey and a GPS-based survey, both of which were conducted among homeowners in three centrally located municipalities in the Netherlands. The study showed that residential self-selection has some limited effect on the relationship between distances to activity locations and travel mode use and daily kilometres travelled. The results also indicate that the inclusion of attitudes can help to detecting residential self-selection, provided that studies comply with several preconditions, such as the inclusion of the 'reversed' influence of behaviour on attitudes." -- BACK COVER.

Abstract: Abstract of the thesis entitled LIFESTYLE AND HOUSING LOCATION CHOICE - A CASE STUDY OF RESIDENTIAL DIFFERENTIATION OF PROFESSIONALS IN TRANSITIONAL SHANGHAI Submitted by Jun WANG for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in December 2006 Driven by accelerated urbanization and economic reform, Chinese cities are experiencing fast-paced, and 'fearless' urban restructuring. One manifestation of this is the reforming of residential differentiation with the inception of housing reform, which facilitated the replacement of the former housing delivery system with the housing market mechanism. Along with the gradual process of housing privatization, households are becoming more visible and active actors in the housing allocation mechanism, influencing residential differentiation reforms at the aggregate level. In the west, the spectrum of residential differentiation has changed from suburbanization, gentrification, to fragmentation. Socio- cultural factors, like lifestyles are now argued to be one of the main forces in such shift. In literature on Chinese cities, however, knowledge in this field is rarely explored, let alone the possibility of developing appropriate urban planning policies based on an understanding of the field. The need for a systematic exploration into the impulse of households' residential location preference has become more self-evident now more than ever. In light of the scenario given above, this study aims to investigate the socio-cultural forces leading to residential differentiation in Chinese cities, with special concern placed on the interaction between lifestyle and residential location choice. In the study, a total of 659 professional workers from two main business clusters are involved in 2003 and 2005, with questionnaire and interview as the main data collection methods. Regarding the systematic measurement of lifestyle, the time-geography frame is adopted to derive lifestyle dimensions from discretionary activities through factor analysis. These lifestyle factors are integrated into the discrete choice model on housing location, which is designed to test the correspondence between social groups and their housing location options. Furthermore, case studies are carried out in lifestyle sub-groups through interviews with representative households in order to understand their individual decision- making, supplemented by geographic mapping of the sub-groups' residential clusters. According to the study's findings, the interaction between lifestyle and housing location choice is evident. Driven by a particular lifestyle, households prefer living close to a pole which is defined by relevant urban spaces that facilitate the given lifestyle. Meanwhile, individual performance on the lifestyle dimension, and factors like income and educational level, together determine whether the household can enter the inner ring around the pole. Moreover, for households with different lifestyles, the meaning of proximity to the pole varies. Whereas urban-amenity-oriented and family-life-oriented households pursue mental satisfaction, career-oriented households regard proximity as a functional advantage. In a given urban context, the influential strengths of varying lifestyles also vary, depending on the interplay between individual lifestyle and the prevailing regional one. It is found that the re
