Abstract:

In addressing land use and travel patterns among the elderly, this paper presents the following: a) A brief summary of the literature on land use and travel patterns and some contextual description of larger urban development trends; b) Descriptive information on basic measures of travel by local and regional location characteristics; c) Results of total daily travel models as a function of selected land use characteristics; since public transit use is such an important aspect of land use policy discussions, results from various models of transit use are included; and d) The potential of land use policy to promote accessibility and reduce reliance on the private automobile.
