Abstract: The jobs-housing spatial relationship can reflect the urban spatial structure and the operational efficiency, and thus has long been a studying topic in several disciplines. However, there are obvious differences on the final conclusion because of the different research perspectives. The paper carded the research contents, the main viewpoints and disputes from the difference of discipline background, then summarized and looked ahead the future research fields of the jobs-housing spatial relationship. The paper found that the sociology focused on the spatial mismatch of disadvantaged groups under the influence of social policy and individual character differences, and the spatial mismatch hypothesis is controversial. The urban economics emphasized on the determinant role of the market and believed that the job-housing separation is the inevitable stage of city growth cycle. Urban planners have tried to verify the effectiveness of jobs-housing balance by measuring the urban commuting efficiency and taken the jobs-housing balance as perfect model and planning ideology, despite being some studying disputes on the jobs-housing balance. Urban geography has insight into the urban space reconstruction, the influencing factors and formation mechanism from the macro space measurement and the micro individual behavior changes. The following research should focus on the integrated model construction and fining simulation of jobs-housing relationship based on the big data and the total-element information from the macro perspective and the influences of jobs-housing relationship on individuals and groups, as well as their responses based on the Postmodernism and Humanism from the micro perspective.
