In this paper, we derive a structural model for commuting speed. We presumethat commuting speed is chosen to minimise … commuting costs, which encompass bothmonetary and time costs. At faster speed levels, the monetary costs increase, but the … timecosts fall. Using data from Great Britain, we demonstrate that the income elasticity ofcommuting speed is 0.126. The ratio …

We use a spatial general equilibrium model with potential commuting of workers between their place of work and their …

realistic representation of decisions related to commuting, migration and household and employment location. The model allows …

We examine the effects of differences in income tax rates on commuting times within multi-state MSAs. Our theoretical … holding fixed other characteristics. We identify large effects on commuting times for affluent households and homeowners in …

reduce their commuting costs by reducing total labour supply. However, a labour supply model which also allows for optimally … chosen daily hours implies that commuting costs increase daily hours, whereas the effect on total labour supply is ambiguous …. This paper addresses this issue empirically by analysing the relationship between labour supply patterns and commuting …

commands, we argue it is simple to use, efficient in terms of computational speed, and versatile regarding the information that …

commuting flows from a Norwegian region with a high number of ferry connections and/or tunnels and bridges. Based on a doubly …-constrained gravity-based model specification we focus on how commuting flows respond to varying toll charges and ferry prices. Estimation … results are used to predict how the generation and distribution of commuting flows is affected when ferry connections are …

We examine the effect of commuting on labour supply patterns. A labour supply model is introduced which shows that … commuting distance increases daily workhours, whereas the effect on total labour supply is ambiguous. This paper addresses these … issues empirically using the socio-economic panel data for Germany between 1997 and 2007. Endogeneity of commuting distance …
