Abstract

This dissertation combines longstanding conceptual approaches--behavioral and economic--with aspects of complexity theory to analyze and model intraurban migration patterns in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area (TCMA). It utilizes detailed parcel data records gathered for property tax purposes available for the seven-county TCMA. This parcel dataset has about six million parcel records covering six years from 2002 to 2007 describing attributes of land parcels, their owners, and the structures constructed on them. Using spatial data mining and modeling techniques, this research extracts spatially accurate information on individual household relocations, constructs vacancy chains, and examines their patterns and relation to residential structure and urban growth.
