Abstract

This article aims to highlight how the degree of ethnic enclaves plays an important role in travel mode choices according to racial/ethnic groups in the Atlanta metropolitan areas in the US. This study finds that ethnic enclaves play a different role in travel mode choices according to the degree of ethnic enclaves, racial/ethnic groups, and travel purposes. For example, white people in low enclaves are more likely to take public transit for work (0.390), and black people in high enclaves are more apt to use household carpool, inter-household carpool, public transit, and walk/bike for school (1.545, 1.725, 1.205, 1.659, respectively) and public transit and walk/bike for other purposes (0.273 and 0.233, respectively). Asian people in high enclaves are more inclined to take household carpool for leisure (3.480), and Hispanic people in low enclaves are more likely to use inter-household carpool for shopping (6.377).
