Abstract
This research investigated the influence of individual characteristics and the built environment on grocery shopping destination choice in the Seattle-King County Area. Four binary logistic models served to estimate the impact of individual characteristics and built environments on grocery shopping destination choice. The results showed that the respondents´ attitudes toward food and the individual socioeconomic status exerted the strongest influence on the destination choice. Built environment variables only had a modest influence.
