Exploring the role of the neighbourhood in firm relocation: differences between stayers and moversNetherlands journal of housing and the built environment - Tập 28 - Trang 417-433 - 2012
Bart Sleutjes, Pascal Beckers
Most firm relocations take place across rather short distances, indicating that
firms are in general quite place-attached. Still, at the local level, weaker
neighbourhoods are characterised by relatively high firm out-migration figures,
which may be the result of unfavourable local business conditions. Through a
qualitative study of 40 entrepreneurs from weaker neighbourhoods, equally
divided betw... hiện toàn bộ

writings of Saunders. His two main conclusions are that homeowners experience a
greater sense of freedom and more security than renters, and that homeowners are
more closely attached to their neighborhood. These inferences have been
questioned on the grounds that major differences exist within the owner-occupier

Residential preferences and satisfaction: a qualitative study using means-end chain theoryNetherlands journal of housing and the built environment - Tập 38 - Trang 1711-1734 - 2023
Sheyda Sadeghlou, Ali Emami
Despite the sizable literature on residential preferences in recent years,
underlying motivational factors have been lacking attention, especially at the
value level. Further, traditional questionnaire-based methods fail to explicate
stated preferences as the subjective aspect of residential satisfaction; thus,
filling these gaps calls for novel research methods. Applying the Means-End
Chain theor... hiện toàn bộ
