This study considered the urban congestion in the view based on the relationship between residential location, commute and urban transportation. Jobs and housing location perform the trend as geographical imbalanced with the increasing in commuting distance and time, and as a result, it has been considered as the main reason to the congestion, and planners take jobs-housing balance as an effective solution to the transportation problems. Even though, there is little evidence shows that jobs-housing balance makes significant effect, for the factors affecting where to live and work are complex. The study indicated that despite the residential location choices and commuting time and distance are closed linked, the effective solutions for urban transportation problems such as congestion should take comprehensive considerations including main factors in both short-term and long-term to improve the regional accessibility.
