Greenfield Advisors
• 37-year-old firm headquartered in Seattle, WA, USA
• Real estate valuation, economic research, survey design and administration, specialty in complex valuation issues (i.e. we don’t do appraisals for banks/lenders)
• Most of our work is litigation support• Current cool project: patent infringement

The Big Picture
• People and households are heterogeneous (different)
• How different are they?– Socioeconomic– Racial– Demographic– Others
• How can we measure the differences? Are they “systematic”?
![Page 4: Defining and Using Residential Submarkets in Planning Work Clifford A. Lipscomb, Ph.D. Director of Economic Research Greenfield Advisors, LLC Seattle,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082817/56649e175503460f94b035bd/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Why is This Important?
• Price prediction (submarkets improve model accuracy)
• Formulation of market strategy• Understanding housing market structure• Improving lenders’ and investors’ ability to
price risk associated with homeownership• Public policy implications
– Policy tailored to one “type” may not be best– Policy inertia (is a mid-course correction
possible after a policy is implemented?)

Terminology
• What is a market?• What is a submarket?• How can we define submarkets?
– Housing stock (similar packages of housing services)
– Geography (traditional neighborhoods)– Household characteristics (data intensive)– Surveys that ask about who are your “peers”
– good for comparative studies– Hybrid methods

Rest of the Presentation
• Focus on an Atlanta neighborhood• Talk about external and internal factors
affecting the neighborhood• Discuss how a change in land use can
affect the neighborhood

Determining Submarkets
• Motivation – assumptions in the literature• Publically available data was limited
(Census tract block group was smallest unit available)
• Houses are the unit of analysis, so need that level of detail in demographics
• Differences between renters and owners• Door-to-door survey effort• 51% response rate
![Page 10: Defining and Using Residential Submarkets in Planning Work Clifford A. Lipscomb, Ph.D. Director of Economic Research Greenfield Advisors, LLC Seattle,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082817/56649e175503460f94b035bd/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Empirical Model
• Round 1: Cluster analysis establishes groups• Round 2: Refines groups into “types” based on a
variation of linear regression model (SUR)• Houses are sorted into types based on the
appraised value that minimizes error• Determines the number of types without
researcher pre-determination! Because what if the researcher draws an arbitrary boundary…

Original Household Types

Type B
Type C

Submarkets
• A: Undergraduate student renters• B: Other student renters, young
professionals, and young married couples• C: Owners and graduate students• Note: Recent research has tightened the distinctions
between submarkets using different econometric estimators (Belasco, Farmer, and Lipscomb 2012)

Dynamic Issues
• What happens to neighborhood if you put in a pocket park?
• Simulation results– Simulation 1: if preference for park access
stays same– Simulation 2: if preference for park is ½ of
current estimate

Location of New Pocket Park

Type C

What Happens After Re-sorting?
• Models predict that mix of residents will change by 30% as a result of pocket park
• Student renters are “forced out” as new owner-occupiers enter the neighborhood
• Change in amenity mix = change in occupant
• Did pocket park simply accelerate resident mix that was going to happen anyway?

Implications
• Policymakers and planners need to plan with preference heterogeneity in mind
• A more granular level of data needed to complete comprehensive plans
• E.g. new MARTA rail stop will be used by what “type” of households?
• E.g. what “types” are attracted to TODs?
![Page 18: Defining and Using Residential Submarkets in Planning Work Clifford A. Lipscomb, Ph.D. Director of Economic Research Greenfield Advisors, LLC Seattle,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082817/56649e175503460f94b035bd/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Implications (2)
• Balancing housing affordability with housing construction (micro-apartments targeting urban professionals living alone)
• Planners can influence the “types” of residents attracted to a neighborhood – influence can be latent or manifest
• Planners plan for change and can influence that change

Summary
• Economists and planners often use data at one geographic scale when analyzing phenomena at a different scale
• Make sure statistical methods are an empirical translation of your theory
• Beware of post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy (“after this, therefore because of this”)
• All methods have limitations; so seek to mitigate them and show relevance relative to other methods
