Abstract: The aim of this paper is the evaluation of approaches to residential location choice model from the viewpoint of a multi-level concept. We discuss a regional level and a local level and their interaction. The main question is whether all the crucial parameters of the residential location choice model should be set at the regional level, or might it include two levels: regional and local? The study compares the state-of-the-art simulation frameworks and proposes a two-level regional approach, which implies the existence of local models and provides regional interactions. Though needing more detailed input data on demographic predictions and residential location preferences as well as attentive geographical division into local areas, the alternative two-level approach can be more flexible than regional approach and capable to provide better prediction and generate additional information.
