        Summary
        This research investigates the preference of residents in the province of Utrecht, the Netherlands, to move to the Merwedekanaalzone, which is a planned residential area with a mobility system supported by mobility hubs... Several advanced discrete choice models with systematic taste variation were adopted to analyze the residential self-selection of individuals along with their commute mode choice. A mixed Revealed and Stated preference online survey was designed to collect the proper data for the analysis purposes. The data consists of three hundred ninety-nine observations, where respondents were presented with the choice between residing in their current residential location or moving to a residential location with mobility hubs. Simultaneously, respondents were asked to choose their preferred commuting mode. The results show that while the respondent’s preferences differ based on their sociodemographic charact-eristics, housing costs and travel costs are important factors in their combined residential and modal choice.
