The motivation for this study is to establish the nature of two such impacts, specifically the spatial and socio-economic patterns of residential relocations that are driven by the new light rail transit （LRT） service. Using empirical data （n = 1,023） from the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail system in New Jersey （US）, we report findings regarding the impacts of the introduction of the new LRT service. We investigate two linked dimensions; the first is the distinctive socio-economic profile of LRT passengers who self-report having relocated to the new transit corridor due, at least in part, to the new transit service. The second is their proximity （following their resi- dential relocation） to the new LRT line＇ s stations. We present a novel analysis that accounts for endogeneity between these two dimensions of residential relocation. Of light rail passengers who engaged in a residential relocation in the 5 years prior to the survey, two-thirds （69 %） indicate that proximity to the light rail service was a ＇somewhat＇ or ＇very＇ important consideration. Via the multivariate analysis, we demonstrate that small household size, low income, youth （as opposed to older age）, and low car ownership are each positively linked, ceteris paribus, with having engaged in a residential reloca- tion motivated by the new transit service. Finally, higher household income is found to be associated with distance （after relocation） to the nearest transit station, which is consistent with bid-rent theory.展开更多
