This paper aims to advance the understanding of the potential impacts of CAVs on trade-offs between key travel- and lifestyle-related variables by investigating preferences for combinations of housing and travel options for the commute. To this end, a stated preference survey among residents of the Sydney metropolitan area in Australia was conducted. The survey featured a stated choice experiment, which required respondents to jointly choose a housing option and a mobility tool for the commute. The choice set of mobility tools included the alternatives conventional car, self-driving car and public transport. In multiple scenarios, attributes such as housing costs, commute times and commute cost were manipulated. For the analysis of the stated choice data, a variety of mixed multinomial logit models are estimated. The estimated models include a mixed multinomial logit model with a multivariate normal mixing distribution, a latent class multinomial logit model and a mixtures-of-normals multinomial logit model. By and large, the estimation results do not suggest any substantial differences in the implicit values of travel time by each of the considered mobility options.
