Abstract
This paper provides a framework for the extension of residential location theory to the case of nonworking, service-dependent households. The analysis suggests that theoretically: (1) housing costs and transportation-to-services costs are key considerations in the locational decisions of service-dependents, thus rooting them to the locus of service provision; (2) service facilities locate in close proximity to service-dependent areas of cities in order to minimize client transportation costs; and (3) both the service dependent poor and their support facilities face severe budgetary constraints on their location choices, serving to restrict them to povertyridden central city neighborhoods.
