Abstract: Policymakers have been slow to implement price-based congestion policies due in part to how little is known about the effects of policies that influence more than simply an individual's commuting method. An individual can also alter her commute by choosing to travel from a different location. I develop a discrete choice structural model of the joint decisions of family residence and individual commuting modes, given the characteristics of the housing market and commuting options.
