In Figs 2-5 we show a variety of perspectives of the inferred function linking household characteristics, neighbourhood characteristics and utility. Utility decreases with distance from the current neighbourhood (Fig 2).

In Figs 2-5 we show a variety of perspectives of the inferred function linking household characteristics, neighbourhood characteristics and utility. Response to neighbourhood immigrant populations shows a marked difference based on the household's own ethnicity (Fig 3).

In Figs 2-5 we show a variety of perspectives of the inferred function linking household characteristics, neighbourhood characteristics and utility. The utility of a neighbourhood based on the income of its residents shows strong signs of homophily (Fig 4).
Utility function for neighbourhood percentage of residents with children.. Black contours represent a utility of zero, indicating no overall preference for or against neighbourhoods with this characteristic.
