While the latest data sets available are utilized, Urban Economics’ emphasis is on economic analysis. The real estate chapters emphasize housing markets, appraisal, business investments, and their relationship to finance. New to this edition is extensive coverage of international issues in cities around the planet. Given the rapidly changing empirical side of urban demography, the text is accompanied by a website with new examples added annually and various discussions/tips about the latest data sets that become available.
