摘要

在这篇文章中，我们提供了与吸烟相关的额外成本的新证据。虽然吸烟者支付租金溢价可能并不令人惊讶，但我们是第一个量化这种溢价规模的人。我们的方法是创新的，因为我们使用文本挖掘方法，直接从Zoopla UK的租赁列表中提取房东对吸烟态度的隐含信息。将享乐、匹配和机器学习方法应用于文本挖掘数据，我们发现吸烟租金溢价约为6%。这相当于14.40英镑的间接成本，除此之外，英国普通吸烟者每周在香烟上的支出估计为40英镑。

The hidden cost of smoking: Rent premia in the housing market

In this article, we provide novel evidence on the additional costs associated with smoking. While it may not be surprising that smokers pay a rent premium, we are the first to quantify the size of this premium. Our approach is innovative in that we use text mining methods that extract implicit information on landlords’ attitudes to smoking directly from Zoopla UK rental listings. Applying hedonic, matching, and machine-learning methods to the text-mined data, we find a positive smoking rent premium of around 6%. This translates into £ 14.40 of indirect costs, in addition to £ 40 of weekly spending on cigarettes estimated for an average smoker in the United Kingdom.
