In this work, we proposed a theoretical framework inspired by physical thermodynamics to explain the housing price distributions in monocentric cities. In the same spirit as the Alonso–Muth–Mills (AMM) model, we assume that the disposable income C=W−R(x)−Q(x) after renting a home a distance x from t...
