  3. 3. House Price and Fertility Decisions: Evidence from Taiwan

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Graduate School

    Författare :Samuel Attafuah; Ko-Cheng Chang; [2022-06-23]
    Nyckelord :House Price; Fertility; Taiwan; Realized Fertility RF ; Fertility Intentions LF ; Fertility Gap FG ;

    Sammanfattning : Given the concurrent incidence of falling birth rates and increasing house prices experienced in Taiwan over the past two decades, the current thesis examines the role of house prices on fertility-related behaviors and outcomes among Taiwanese households. Acknowledging that housing is a major cost associated with childrearing and the theoretical assumption that children are normal goods, we hypothesize that house price inflation will adversely impact fertility and that current non-homeowners are the most affected due to the “resource exhaustion effect”.
