Public Transportation Access and Food Insecurity

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 65, Issue 5, Page 1449-1467, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Public transportation networks connect poor urban households in food deserts to grocery options and nutritious food. This paper examines how the exit of public transit options in an urban food desert affects a household's access to and utilization of grocery stores over drug and dollar stores, as well as the healthfulness of the foods these ...

Public Transit Access and Income Segregation

International Economic Review, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 1525-1560, October 2025.
ABSTRACT What are the implications of mass transit improvements for residential income segregation within cities? I observe large income differences in households' usage of and residential proximity to “fast” versus “slow” transit (e.g., subways vs. buses on shared lanes).

Assessment of Models to Estimate Bus-Stop Level Transit Ridership using Spatial Modeling Methods

Journal of Public Transportation, 2012
The objective of this research is to develop and assess bus transit ridership models at a bus-stop level using two spatial modeling methods: spatial proximity method (SPM) and spatial weight method (SWM). Data for the Charlotte (North Carolina) area are used to illustrate 1) the working of the methods and 2) development and assessment of the models ...
