Abstract
Outshopping behaviour, defined as consumers traveling outside their local areas for shopping, is a pervasive phenomenon. Understanding the interaction between outshopping and urban spatial structure is critical for urban, retail, and transport planning. In the case of Shenzhen, China, this study mapped outshopping patterns using real-time visitation data from 97,682 records across 138 shopping malls. By leveraging spatial interaction models, this study examined how urban structure moderates the influence of spatial function complementarity (SFC) on outshopping flow volume. The findings reveal that outshopping flows predominantly occur within central areas, followed by flows from suburban areas to central zones. The effects of SFC on outshopping flow volume vary depending on the direction related to urban structure, underscoring the role of urban structure in shaping outshopping patterns. This study advocates for nuanced policy responses that differentiate between daily-life consumption and high-level shopping behaviour. It calls for a spatially equitable provision of commercial facilities to balance local demand satisfaction while strategically supporting SFC for high-level shopping behaviour when promoting X-minute city.
期刊介绍:
Travel Behaviour and Society is an interdisciplinary journal publishing high-quality original papers which report leading edge research in theories, methodologies and applications concerning transportation issues and challenges which involve the social and spatial dimensions. In particular, it provides a discussion forum for major research in travel behaviour, transportation infrastructure, transportation and environmental issues, mobility and social sustainability, transportation geographic information systems (TGIS), transportation and quality of life, transportation data collection and analysis, etc.
