In this study, we aim to contribute to this literature by assessing the impact of crimeand accessibility on housing prices. Accessibility is expected to have a positive impacton housing prices, but good accessibility to a place may also mean more crime, becausean accessible place allows more social interaction, more crime opportunities, and morecrime, pulling housing prices down. Individuals make choices based on a trade- offbetween accessibility and criminality. Using hedonic modeling, we empirically assessthis trade- off after controlling for other property and neighborhood characteristics.
