THESIS
Abstract: Urban overheating has numerous adverse effects on health, productivity, and household energy consumption. The measures implemented by local governments to combat urban overheating are insufficient. Therefore, households can adopt their own adaptation strategies to address urban overheating, including decisions about their location within the city. On the one hand, I aim to empirically study the impact of urban overheating on household location choices, housing prices, and urban sprawl. On the other hand, the more theoretical aspect of my thesis seeks to examine the endogenous formation of urban overheating, particularly by analyzing how households and firms concentrate within a city, creating urban characteristics conducive to the emergence of overheating.
