Rethinking Land Use Density, Diversity, Accessibility and Travel Behavior A Study of a Highly Mixed-Use City - Taipei, Taiwan

Some research examined dissonance between actual and preferred neighborhood types in terms of automobile- versus transit-orientation, determinants of dissonance, and impacts of neighborhood preferences on choice.

However, limited research has explicitly examined factors affecting choices and/or preferences for types of mixed-use neighborhood, extent and determinants of dissonance between preferred type of mixed-use neighborhood and their choice, and how this neighborhood preference affects residential choice. The purposes of this paper are threefold. First, it will investigate factors that affect choices references for different sizes of grain of diverse land uses, e.g., within-building, within-block, and between-block mixes.
