“…The findings provide relevant implications for policy makers and decision makers dealing with property valuation, the determination of zoning plans, and urban growth boundaries, amongst others. Due to ongoing population growth (Fassmann and Görgl, 2010), housing developments in urban fringes will be even more important and, if not correctly managed, may have severe consequences for human well-being and the quality of life. To guarantee prospective and constructive management as well as sustainable planning, it is apparent that further research will be required before a comprehensive understanding of the urban dynamics and their economic consequences occurs.…”

“…Thus, people attempt to relocate to the fringes where they can realize their dream of owning real estate in an affordable manner. In this sense, population suburbanization represents an important driving force of urban growth (Fassmann et al, 2009;Mieszkowski and Mills, 1993). This leads to a unique suburban housing market, where the increasing demand for suburban housing results in higher real-estate prices (Voith, 1999).…”

“…While in 1981 the population was approximately 517 000, the number of inhabitants continuously increased to approximately 645 000 persons in 2007 with an average population per municipality (n = 183) of 3 600. Fassmann and Görgl (2010) forecast that this trend of urban growth will continue, resulting in profound changes and reinforcing the pressure on housing markets.…”

“…Due to data availability, suburban areas are operationalized at a municipality level. Extensive descriptive analyses by Fassmann et al (2009) in combination with a qualitative survey of in-migration conducted by the AIAE (2004) build the basis for variable selection (table 1). The latter provides an indispensable source summarizing households' motivations for relocating to suburban municipalities.…”

“…Most urban landscapes are facing major changes due to urban growth (eg, Antrop, 2004;Fassmann et al, 2009). Particularly, this is valid for highly dynamic urban fringes being reshaped by service (Helbich, 2012) and population relocation (Helbich and Leitner, 2009), which causes scarcity of building sites and raises property values (Voith, 1999).…”

Urban fringes are frequently occupied by a particular socioeconomic group of households, who have a certain demand on real-estate markets. Consequently, it is advisable to model the suburban housing market in hedonic studies. The operationalization of suburbia is challenged by its inherent vagueness, specifically, its continuous merging with rural areas and its potentially fragmented spatial pattern. Investigating the urban fringe of Vienna, Austria, this research proposes a suburban taxonomy based on fuzzy clustering and a spatially explicit, nonlinear hedonic pricing model to determine the marginal price of suburbia on single-family homes. The clustering result suggests that suburban municipalities are increasingly located next to the main traffic arterials in the immediate proximity of the core city. The hedonic regression confirms a stratification of the housing market. Furthermore, a local intra-submarket in the south of the core city is evident, referring to an additional locational asset. Suburbia has a significant effect on housing prices and reflects a self-contained housing market, albeit one which is economically interrelated with other submarkets. It is concluded that suburbanites implicitly value such neighborhoods and are willing to pay a premium to live in like-minded communities.
