초록

This study aims to examine the relationship between topography, particularly slopes of land, and travel behaviors, specifically mode choice. In this study, we are seeking to identify mode choice and neighborhood topographic feature, such as average percentage of land slope, with other drivers to mode choice such as built environment and socioeconomic status. Keeping built environment, distance to job centers, socioeconomic status, and spatial effect constatnt, we found that steeper neighborhoods tended to have a higher percentage of people who rode public transit or walked to work, whereas there were negative associations of the average percentage of land slope with the percentage of residents who drove private cars or rode bicycles to work. Unlike our assumption, walking trips were positively associated with the average percentage of land slope in neighborhoods.
