Resumen
Descripción
Using National Household Travel Survey data and information collected from over 100 agencies,
transportation-related taxation and expenditures were assigned to individual households in
the Houston Core Based Statistical Area (CBSA). Using Gini Coefficients and Theil Indices, the
research demonstrated that implementation of a Mileage Based User Fee (MBUF) would not have
a pronounced effect on the current distribution of what households pay versus what they receive
in transportation expenditures. The relative winners are rural and high income urban households,
while the relative losers are all other urban households.
