"Using hedonic pricing models, we focus on the effects of proximity and noise on housing prices in neighborhoods near … prices and that airport-related noise is associated with lower prices. Relative to this latter result, estimates are … generated showing evidence of a shrinking noise discount between 1995 and 2002. An important question is whether this result …

causes all sorts of negative externalities, for example traffic noise disturbance. These externalities call for corrective … prices in order to quantify the social cost of aircraft noise disturbance in monetary terms. While focusing on aircraft noise … background noise. We do this by taking multiple sources of traffic noise (i.e. road, railway and aircraft noise) into account …

We simultaneously analyze the effects of alternative noise sources to isolate their relative harms. This research adds … to the literature, which has only analyzed one noise source or has aggregated the noise levels of different sources …. Flight noise had the most negative effect on housing prices, and road and train noises had similar, but smaller effects …
