Microsimulation model of population for estimation of future housing demand in Prague
Pinlová, Adriana ; Polák, Petr (advisor) ; Šťastná, Lenka (referee)
The aim of this thesis was to create and implement a microsimulation model which will be able to estimate the future size and age structure of the population of Prague, thus contributing to the discussion on the topic of unavailability of housing. The created model is based on the historical development of mortality, fertility and migration in the area. Age-specific mortality and fertility rates were obtained using the Lee-Carter model. As a result of the microsimulation, it is apparent that in the next twenty years the population will clearly grow, which is due to the expected positive net migration rate. At the same time, the model assumes that in terms of the total number of inhabitants of Prague, the growth rate does not accelerate or slow down. If the volume of construction from the past twenty years is maintained, there will be no increase in the unavailability of housing due to population growth. 1
