"Using hedonic pricing models, we focus on the effects of proximity and noise on housing prices in neighborhoods near Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. We find that proximity to the Atlanta airport is related positively to housing prices and that airport-related noise is...

Using Lorenz-type curves, means tests, ordinary least squares, and locally weighted regressions (LWR), we examine the relative burdens of whites, blacks, and Hispanics in Georgia from road and air traffic noise. We find that whites bear less noise than either blacks or Hispanics and that blacks...
