ispublished: unpub
full_text_status: public
abstract: This thesis analyzes the association between a neighborhood’s retail vacancy rate and specific neighborhood characteristics. Kadaster and CBS data is combined to obtain information on retail vacancy, neighborhood characteristics, and the number of realized property transformations to housing. Multiple linear regressions are conducted in STATA with neighborhood’s retail vacancy as the dependent variable. The research shows a positive association between retail vacancy and population characteristics, the urbanity level, and the number of realized property transformations to housing. Furthermore, construction before 2000 and the average housing value show a negative association with retail vacancy in the neighborhood. The relationship between retail vacancy and the number of realized property transformations to housing shows no significant difference between urban and non-urban areas.
