Behavioural insights into housing relocation decisions: The effects of the Beijing Olympics

Much has been written about the legacies of Olympic Games but there have been little efforts to synthesize current knowledge. This has led to inconsistencies in defining, contextualising and measuring these legacies. The literature review described in this paper provides an overview over research on the legacy of the Olympic Games from 1908 to 2016 that was published in peer-reviewed journals between 1984 and 2017.The analysis reveals a significant increase of literature dealing with Olympic legacy since 2008. It turns out that considerably more studies relate to the legacy of Summer Olympic Games than of Winter Games. Regarding the six different facets of legacy of the framework that was employed, 'urban development' and 'beliefs and behaviour' have been scrutinized much more often than the other four. Regarding the methodologies used in legacy studies there is a dominance of commentary articles and a lack of adequate empirical research. This leads to a number of implications for future studies, which are discussed in the paper.

“…International mega-events, such as the Olympic Games, have become key for host cities seeking economic growth, urban development-dynamics, and city image branding [16][17][18]12]. Mega-events are also frequently considered as a highly significant tourist asset for a host city, firstly, because they directly attract participants, and secondly, because they increase general visitation as a result of the raised profile of the area [19].…”

“…Most previous studies conclude that mega-events, especially mega-sporting events, benefit host regions in terms of city branding, urban regeneration, and international investment and creating substantial and long-term economic impacts [12]. The Olympic Games, in particular, constitute an opportunity to transform urban areas that have become obsolete in terms of use, for example, industrial areas, into areas related to the service economy [13 -15].…”

Olympic Games have a huge impact on the cities where they are held, both during the actual celebration of the event and before and after it. This study presents a new approach based on spatial analysis, GIS, and data coming from Location Based Social Networks to model the spatiotemporal dimension of impacts associated with the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. Geolocalized data from Twitter are used to analyze the activity pattern of users from two different viewpoints. The first monitors the activity of Twitter users during the event -the arrival of visitors, where they came from, and the use resident and tourist made of different areas of the city. The second assesses the spatiotemporal use of the city by Twitter users before the event, compared to the use during and after the event. The results not only reveal which spaces were the most used while the Games were being held but also changes in the urban dynamics after the Games. Both approaches can be used to assess the impacts of mega-events and to improve the management and allocation of urban resources such as transport and public services infrastructure.

Abstract-The article provides mathematical models to forecast the dynamics of price changing of residential property in Kazan. Verification of models was performed and results of the comparative analysis of prices in the secondary market of residential property in Kazan and other major cities of the Volga federal district were obtained. In this article, authors research the possibility of modelling (including with using the Fischer-Pry model) in forecasting the dynamics of prices in the primary and the secondary market of housing of Kazan, upon the influence of the external factors on the dynamics of prices of residential property. The issues of the system analysis of the real estate market, the methodology of investment analysis, as well as statistical monitoring and modeling of the real estate market, are being studied. The paper examines the factors that have a significant impact on the demand for housing and consequently on the dynamics of price changes.
