An Investigation on the Spatial Coupling Relationship between Metro Station and Job: Housing Spatial Structure in Shenzhen
Publication: ICCREM 2022
ABSTRACT
Metro station has an important impact on the distribution of job-housing space, but there is lack of research on the effect of metro station on population aggregation in China. Taking Shenzhen as an example and based on the mobile signaling data in 2019, this study analyzes the relationship between metro station and job-housing population in Shenzhen and the guiding effect of metro stations on job-housing population. The results show that (1) there is coupling relationship between metro station and the distribution of job-housing space, and metro station has more guiding effect on resident population distribution. (2) There are significant differences in job-housing population coverage ratio among different regions in Shenzhen; Luohu District has the highest job-housing coverage ratio. (3) The level of population aggregation guided by the station is correlated with the opening time, regional location of Shenzhen metro station, and so on. It is found that metro station has played an important role in attract job-housing people gathering.
