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 …

The relationship between speed and income is established in a micro- economic model focusing on the trade-off between … travel time and the risk of receiving a penalty for exceeding the speed limit. This is used to determine when a rational … driver will choose to exceed the speed limit. The relationship between speed and income is found again in the empirical …

In this study, we quantify the causal effects of commuting time and working from home (WFH) arrangements on the mental … health of Australian men and women. Leveraging rich panel-data models, we first show that adverse effects of commuting time … effects of commuting time on the mental health of British women.

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 …

commuting are negatively related, and thus the probability of self-employment decreases with "expected" commuting time. We use … metropolitan areas in the US, focusing on the relationship between commuting time and the probability of self-employment. Our … empirical results show that the probability of self-employment is negatively related to the "expected" commuting time, giving …

relationship between individual earnings and commuting and leisure. Our empirical results show that employment is mostly … concentrated in metropolitan cores, and that earnings increase with "expected" commuting time, which gives empirical support to our … pattern of commuting and the employees-to-unemployed rate, although we find higher wages in comparatively crowded states …
