Intraregionale Unterschiede in der Carsharing-Nachfrage - eine GIS-basierte empirische Analyse

Abstract

Carsharing has been growing significantly throughout the last years. However, the density of regional supply largely differs between urban and rural regions, between cities and also within cities and regions. Particularly the question of intraregional differences in the demand for carsharing is only sporadically researched so far. The present contribution thus addresses the question which factors determine the demand for carsharing on the subregional level of urban quarters. Grounded on a geographic information system (GIS) and comprehensive empirical data from the city of Tübingen, Germany, we explain the demand for carsharing taking into account different socio-demographic and structural factors. The paper shows that social characteristics of the population, particularly age and attitudes, are import determinants of the observable regional differences. Factors of a more structural nature, e.g. the diversity of land utilization or an environment favoring bicycles or pedestrians, which have been emphasized in the extant literature, are less influential in our models.
