| summary |
The rapid development of cities has caused many problems of spatial injustice in urban communities. However, how to detect and measure such injustice has not been fully developed yet. With open-source urban big data and advanced data analysis methods, this study evaluates spatial justice in cities by analyzing the relationship between the house prices of communities and the accessibility to urban facilities. It investigates the accessibility to critical infrastructures mainly in five dimensions: public transportation, shopping, education, health care and recreation. The whole research is grounded by a comparative case study of the two biggest cities in China, Beijing and Shanghai. Integrating the big data of 5394 communities from these two cities, this study examines if the house prices of communities are highly related to the convenience of accessibility to urban infrastructures, which can inform if there is any spatial injustice in Chinese cities. Findings indicate that the situations of spatial justice in Beijing and Shanghai are pretty different. Residents in Beijing City have relevantly equal access to urban facilities, which has little connection with house prices, while citizens in Shanghai may experience a spatial injustice as people living in higher house-price communities have noticeably better accessibility to urban amenities. Such a distinct difference may come from the different urban planning policies in these two cities, as the former has a human-centred equality-minded approach to embody the political significance while the latter takes rapid economic development as its priority for urban planning. |
