摘 要:We can observe the trend of smaller housing units in new residential construction in many countries with rapid urban growth. It is essential to recognize the driving forces that are behind this trend because if it sustains, in the long run, negative consequences for sustainable development can be expected. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to examine the main underlying factors affecting the average size of apartments in new construction in major Swedish cities. Panel data methodology applied in the analysis. The model uses the average size of an apartment in new housing construction as a function of the changes in the population, house prices, mortgage interest rates, rents, land prices, building permits per capita.We estimate the interrelationship between apartment size and these variables through simultaneous equation models. The data covers both the rental and the cooperative housing sectors over 25 years. The analysis demonstrates that the land values and building policies, along with market fundamentals, are the underlying factors that affect the average size of an apartment in new residential construction. Opposite to previous studies that focus on the number of new housing, we analyze the average size of new housing units and factors that affect it on an aggregated level.
