Each of the following papers studies the prices of houses in different areas across the United States. Do and Grudnitski (1998) analyze the effect golf courses have on house values in San Diego. Benson, Hansen, Schwartz, and Smersh (1998) study the effect of views on house prices in Washington State. Anderson (2000) attempts to find the premium open space has on houses in a
suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Finally, Dubin studies the effect of neighborhoods in Baltimore. I will further explain each of these studies below.
