Descripción
Given the importance of land valuation to the various stakeholders, the objective of this research
is to develop a theoretically sound model that robustly estimates the market value of land in
Kansas, accounting for urban influence. The market value of land is estimated using a hedonic
model that includes factors related to urban sprawl. A semi-log hedonic model that combined
site-specific characteristics with negative exponential distance functions was estimated. Results
indicated that the upward, urban pressure on price is greater for Kansas City relative to Wichita.
Kansas City had a much slower rate of decay than either Wichita or cities with a population of
more than 10,000.
