摘要: Australia’s large cities have some of the least affordable housing markets in the world. Australian home buyers are increasingly trading accessibility for affordability in the suburban fringe. This paper presents data collected in 73 qualitative interviews conducted across three strategically selected outer-ring suburbs in Melbourne, Australia. The findings illustrate how the combined impacts of housing and transportation costs are experienced in everyday life, including the residential and lifestyle choices, trade-offs and adaptations people must make.摘要澳大利亚的大城市拥有世界上最廉价的住房市场. 澳大利亚购房者越来越多地在郊区边缘地区用可获得性换取可承受性. 本文介绍了在澳大利亚墨尔本三个战略选择的外环郊区进行的73次定性访谈中收集的数据. 这些发现说明了在日常生活中如何经历住房和交通成本的综合影响，包括居住和生活方式的选择、人们必须做出的取舍和适应.KEYWORDS: Housingtransportaffordabilityqualitative methodsMelbourneAcknowledgmentsThis work was supported by a Lord Mayor’s Charitable Foundation Innovation Grant; and a seed grant jointly provided by the Faculty of Arts and Faculty of Engineering at Monash University.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the Lord Mayor’s Charitable Foundation Innovation Grant and a seed grant jointly provided by the Faculty of Arts and Faculty of Engineering at Monash University.Correction StatementThis article has been republished with minor changes.
