| dc.description.abstract | This paper looks at the factors affecting the willingness of informal settler families residing in flood prone and other high-risk areas to avail a housing program. The possible factors taken into account are family characteristics, household head attributes and situational considerations such as past relocation experience and environmental risk since the study focuses on informal settlers living in high-risk areas. The study found significance on tenure status, work location, number of household members, expenditure, experience of being relocated, house structure, and plans to transfer as factors that affect willingness to avail the housing program. Seeing the impact of these factors on the decision to avail a housing program may help authorities create more desirable and accommodating houses for informal settlers, therefore improve the effectiveness of the relocation program. Using logit regression in the model, the marginal effects of each variable will be analyzed. | |
