This paper empirically investigates the household's decision to reside and work either inthe central metropolitan area, or in the surrounding nonmetropolitan area, or to commutebetween the two regions. As economic theory suggests the location decisionamounts to trading off wages, housing costs,...

Discrete choice models are widely used in studies of recreation demand. They have proven valuable when modeling situations where decision makers face large choice sets and site substitution is important. However, when the choice set faced by the individual becomes very large (on the order of...

A number of authors have discussed the possible advantages of conditioning parameter distributions on observed choices when working with Mixed Multinomial Logit models. However, the number of applications is still relatively small, partly due to a limited implementation in available software. To...

Modeling consumer choice in different areas has lead to an increase use of discrete choice models. Probit or Multinomial Logit Models are often the base of further empirical research of consumer choice. In some of these models the equations to solve have no closed-form expression. They include...
