Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 地理學系 === 81 === In western cities, residential differentiation has always
been an apparent phenomenon and issue. But in the
Taipei Metropolitan Area - a metropolitan with special
developmental process, political system, and clutural
characteristics, is there a distinct spatial pattern of
residential differentiation? This is a research topic that
deserve studying and is what this will discuss. Three qestions
are proposed before analysis, 1.Is there a distinct pattern of
residential differentiation? 2.In the past fourty years, the
economic development in Taiwan has resulted in spatial
expansion of the Taipei Metropolitan Area. How does it
influence the characteristics of the residents in The
Taipei Metropolitan Area? 3.Have the household characteristics
in the Taipei Metropolitan Area been changed in recent
years? Has the change in household characteristics
promoted a more distinct residential differentiation than
before? This illustrates focus conclusions : 1.The economic
development for every county in the Taipei Metropolitan
Area show a sequential order in time, and the significance
in residential differentiation results in differences in
characteristics of residents. 2.The pattern of residential
differentiation in the Taipei Metropolitan Area is
different from that in western cities. Two factors - social-
economic status and early stage life cycle show that
influence by the force of structure, supply and demand in the
housing market. 3.The characteristics of recent migrants and
new housing stocks is simlar to the characteristics of
existing residents and existing housing stocks. This will
reenforce an existing pattern of differentiation. 4.The
development of residential differentiation in the Taipei
Metropolition Area can be verified and explained by related
theories on the study of western cities for past decades.
