This study adopts a dwelling unit level of analysis and models a complete range of dwelling unit choices. The proposed analytic framework is applied to study housing choices using data derived from the 2009 American Housing Survey (AHS).

This paper was sponsored by TRB committee ADB40 Standing Committee on Transportation Demand Forecasting. Alternate title: Comprehensive Dwelling Unit Choice Model Accommodating Psychological Constructs Within a Search Strategy for Consideration Set Formation. Alternate abstract: This study adopts a dwelling unit level of analysis and models a complete range of dwelling unit choices that include tenure type (rent or own), housing type (single family detached, single family attached, or apartment complex), number of bedrooms, number of bathrooms, number of storeys (one or multiple), square footage of the house, lot size, housing costs, density of residential neighborhood, and commute distance. Bhat’s (2015a) generalized heterogeneous data model (GHDM) system is used to accommodate the different types of dependent outcomes associated with housing choices, while capturing jointness caused by unobserved factors. The proposed analytic framework is applied to study housing choices using data derived from the 2009
