TL;DR: In this article, an improved model of net migration that encompasses both equilibrium and disequilibrium components was developed, with time-series data for 51 areas [in the United States] over the period 1971-1988.

TL;DR: A survey of the literature related to regional computable general equilibrium (CGE) modeling can be found in this paper, which includes a discussion of the contributions that CGE models have made to regional economic analysis.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined how proximity to urban agglomeration affects contemporary population growth in hinterland U.S. counties and found strong negative growth effects of distances to higher-tier urban areas, with significant, but lesser, effects of distance to market potential, consistent with various recent theories stressing the importance of how new technology affects the spatial distribution of activity in a mature urban system.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors theoretically derived a net migration equation and estimated it using time-series data for 51 [U.S. regions over the period 1971-1988] and found that the dynamic response of net migration is stable and is significantly related to stock equilibrium changes induced by amenity differentials relative employment opportunities relative real wages and industry composition.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the net economic impacts of oil and gas production from shale formations for key shale oil-and gas producing areas in Arkansas, North Dakota and Pennsylvania.
