Agent-Based Simulation of Residential Promoting Policy Effects on Downtown Revitalization

摘要: In recent decades, compact cities have become a new concern in urban planning most Japanese cities. The main reason for this trend among is the phenomenon of de-urbanization and downtown decline that gradually occurred after 1990s. As such, at present, there are dispersed, small, built-up portions suburban areas resulted household mobility outside downtown. Therefore, some local governments Japan attempting to realize through policy intervention, such as encouraging households relocate from order address population areas. Recently, one residential been promoted by city governments. By offering housing allowance, encourages areas. We developed an agent-based relocation model (HRRM) visualize effect policy, is, allowance. HRRM built on householdsAo adaptive behaviours interactions choices attitudes, so it can simulate diversified relocations various lifecycle stages. Through simulation using HRRM, effectiveness be visualized, will help understand effects policies.
