Determinants of Population Density Gradient in Tel Aviv Metropolitan Area

The author is in the Department of Economics, Bar Ilan University, Ramat Gan, Israel

Urban population density gradients have been traditionally estimated from cross-sectional data. The estimates obtained show a flattening of the gradients through time. Few works have attempted to empirically investigate the determinants of the parameters of the function. In this paper we have specified and estimated a simple model of density gradient which uses pooled cross-sectional and time-series data. The results show that income, size of metropolitan area and a time variable explain well the flattening through time of the density gradient in Tel Aviv metropolitan area.
