Methods Using state‐level data from 2005 to 2019, we analyze whether minority representation in transportation‐related government functions improves traffic safety for mino…
Spatial segregation of Chinese immigrants in Seoul, South Korea, during the Covid-19 pandemic: Evidence from population data derived from mobile phone signals
COVID-19 has substantially changed people’s mobility patterns and population dynamics, which could potentially affect the degree of spatial segregation between different population groups in daily life. Using the Seoul De Facto Population data derived from mobile phone signals and users’ registration information, this study explores changes in the spatial segregation of Chinese immigrants in Seoul before and after the COVID-19 outbreak. The resul…

Are Dollar Stores Magnets for Violent Crime? Evidence from Chicago
With the rise of economic inequality in recent decades, dollar stores have flourished in the United States. Although the media has increasingly portrayed dollar stores as violent crime magnets, limited academic research has examined their impact on nearby crime. This study employed a difference-in-differences approach to investigate the impact of dollar stores on localized violent crime patterns in Chicago. Results showed a significant increase i…
Neighborhood Distribution of Unsheltered Homelessness and its Temporal Changes: Evidence from Los Angeles
Using the 2016–2020 point-in-time homeless count data, this study investigates neighborhood characteristics associated with the levels of and changes in unsheltered homeless population density in Los Angeles. The results show that unsheltered homeless people in the study area are heavily concentrated in and around the city center, and in neighborhoods with greater access to shelters and lower socioeconomic status. Notably, neighborhoods closer to…
Representation and Wage Gaps in the Planning Profession: A Focus on Gender and Race/Ethnicity
Problem, research strategy, and findings Although gender and racial/ethnic equity have been primary concerns in planning, little research has examined whether the planning profession has achieved such equity in its workforce. In this study, I investigated representation and wage gaps by gender and race/ethnicity in the U.S. planning profession. Using Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) data, I explored a) whether gender and racial/ethnic gaps exis…

Neighborhood disparities in access to street arts festivals: Evidence from Chicago
This study explores the neighborhood disparities in access to street arts festivals (SAFs) based on a case study of Chicago. The city’s street closure permit database is used to identify the locations of SAFs and examine how access to SAFs is associated with the characteristics of neighborhoods. The results show that SAFs are highly spatially concentrated and are not equally accessible from different types of neighborhoods. Specifically, access t…
What Can We Learn from Online Reviews? Examining the Reviews of Los Angeles Metro Rail Stations
Out-of-vehicle time is a well-known major burden of transit travel. Although transit stations’ characteristics likely affect people’s perceptions of out-of-vehicle time and decisions to use public transit, our understanding of how transit users evaluate stations is limited. This study uses reviews of Los Angeles Metro Rail stations from Yelp.com to conduct descriptive analyses of stations’ numeric ratings and to identify the factors users conside…

Does zoning help or hinder transit-oriented (re)development
Despite its reputation as a car-oriented city, the Los Angeles metropolitan area has made substantial investments in developing rail transit since 1990. Most new stations were added to an already dense built environment, with auto-oriented zoning and established land use patterns. In this paper we ask whether redevelopment is occurring around Los Angeles rail stations, and whether zoning and related policies are facilitating or constraining trans…
Ethnic neighborhoods, social networks, and inter-household carpooling: A comparison across ethnic minority groups
Unraveling the Effects of Residence in an Ethnic Enclave on Immigrants’ Travel Mode Choices
This article examines the relationship between immigrants’ residence in an ethnic enclave and use of alternative modes of transportation. Ethnic enclaves may offer stronger social networks, which may affect mode choice. Using the 2012–2013 California Household Travel Survey, I find that immigrants residing in ethnic enclaves have higher rates of household-external carpooling for nonwork trip purposes than immigrants residing outside ethnic enclav…
