Item La estructura espacial urbana y accesibilidad diferenciada a centros de empleo en Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua(El Colegio de Sonora, 2009-01-01) Fuentes, César Mario; Fuentes Flores, César Mario; 12645There are intraurban differences in commuting times using private autos and mass transit as a result of unequal access to employment centers in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua; the objective of this paper is to explain them. The methodology used is spatial analysis, and four regression models were estimated using the ordinary least squares (OLS) statistical method. The primary sources of data are the Origin-Destination Survey of 1997, the XII Housing and Population Census of 2000, and the XIII Economic Census of 1999, all of them at census block level. The results of the regression models indicate that accessibility index, job-home balance, land value and land use proxies (the proportion of secondary and tertiary sector workers) have significant effects on explaining differences in workers' commuting times using mass transit. Furthermore, the accessibility index, land use and proportion of secondary workers increase commuting time using an automobile. These results have implications for land use and transportation planning.
