Abstract
This study asks whether residents of Gresham, Oregon value the benefits of mixed land use
as indicated by higher housing prices in walkable neighborhoods, controlling for other factors
that affect home prices. By controlling for these other factors, this analysis identifies key
predictors of housing values in Gresham and teases out the association of walkability with
home prices, independent of lot size, neighborhood crime, and other possible confounding
elements.
