to
the
compatibility
of
the

,

See
Master Response 25
for
discussion
of
the
relationship
between
jobs
and
housing
in
relation
to
trip
reduction
and
vehicle
miles
travelled
and
discussion
of
the
analyses
and
evidence
that
improving
the
balance
between
jobs
and
housing
in
an
area
or
region
reduces
average
commute
distances,
with
resulting
reductions
in
air
pollutant
and
greenhouse
gas
emissions.
While
housing
near
jobs
does
not
guarantee
that
all
residents
would
be
employed
locally,
providing
a
balance
of
employment
and
housing
opportunities
in
an
area
or
region
does
reduce
average
commute
distances.
As
described
in
Master Response 25,
under
the
DSP
and
DSP-V
scenarios
that
propose
both
residential
and
employment-generating
uses
within
the
Baylands,
approximately
5
percent
of
all
home-to-work
trips
associated
with
proposed
Baylands
development
would
remain
within
the
Baylands.
