Modelling explores housing rent distribution in a rapidly growing urban area, suggesting planning implications.

This research aims to assess the impact of polycentric policies on housing rent distribution in Beijing.
Developed a general land-use and transport interaction model.
Forecasted housing rent distribution based on current land-use policies.
Examined the potential for decentralized multi-centres in a 'business as usual' scenario.
Forecasts indicate no sub-centres will be formed around urban Beijing by 2020.
Certain zones show potential for higher rent increases than surrounding areas.
The spatial distribution of these potential zones differs from expectations in the master plan.

Niu et al. (2018) studied this question.
