Abstract

The paper offers a valuation of urban rail noise in South Korea using the hedonic pricing method. It considers trade-offs in the context of housing prices, locality, and environment intrusion. The model adopted provides a reasonable explanation of the determinants of property values, with a unit increase in dB(A) decreases property value by 0.53% in the Seoul area.
