Abstract
This research attempts identifying the array of factors and the extent to which they influence residential location of households among the employees of a typical north western Nigerian polytechnic using descriptive survey research design. The sample consists of 204 respondents (i.e. 48.92% of the universe population)determined by the adoption of YaroYamaniestheory of 1968. The sample comprised both theteaching and administrative staff drawn by quota and accidental sampling techniques. Data collected were analyzed using frequency counts, percentages, means and Pearson product moment correlation. Also, ranking of the attributes contained in the Likert aspect of the questionnaire was done to elicit answer to the last hypothesis.Four null hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance. The findings illustrated the importance of the proximity of the employees‟ place of work in determining their residential location so also their level of income while automobile ownership on the other hand were found to have no influence on the residential location of respondents..
