Abstract

The main aim of this study was to identify the eco-friendly factors responsible for property buyers’ choice of residential location, including single-family houses and apartments. The following objectives were formulated: analysis of consumers' residential preferences based on their personal experience supports a more reliable evaluation of individual attributes of a residential location. This paper overviews the existing literature on the subject and analyzes primary data collected by the computer-assisted web-interviewing (CAWI) method. The questionnaire developed by the authors was completed by 269 public servants. The respondents evaluated the quality of their residential environment and identified environmental factors that could influence their health. The data were processed statistically to reveal that price is the most important factor behind the residential location choice. Other factors identified by the respondents included a sense of security and a quiet neighbourhood. High scenic value was regarded as a moderately important factor, although its significance was recognized by the majority of the respondents.
