title: Modeling mobility in the Dutch context:  current issues and dilemmas.
abstract: The author assesses recent research on modeling residential mobility.  "The review and analysis in this article are designed to...examine the question of the trade off between theoretical concerns and policy relevance.  The review emphasizes recent research in the Dutch housing market context....[Three critical issues are highlighted.]  The first is the link between the aggregate and micro approaches.  The second is the role of the interface between the studies of mobility and the larger demographic processes.  And the third is the nature of the modeling strategies themselves.  The last will lead quite naturally into the concluding remarks--the usefulness of modeling for policy makers."
