Abstract:

This research investigates the joint impacts of race/ethnicity and job accessibility on individual person’s employment outcomes. Using data from the 2012 California Household Travel Survey, the author applies multi-level binomial logit models to estimate employment probability of job seekers in three education groups. The results suggest that job accessibility has limited effects on employment, and the effects do not significantly vary by race/ethnicity for most job seekers.
