Natural amenities, neighborhood dynamics, and persistence in the spatial distribution of income
Sanghoon Lee,Jeffrey Lin +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present theory and evidence highlighting the role of natural amenities in neighborhood dynamics, suburbanization, and variation across cities in the persistence of the spatial distribution of income.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thick-Market Effects and Churning in the Labor Market: Evidence from U.S. Cities
Hoyt Bleakley,Jeffrey Lin +1 more
TL;DR: Using U.S. Census microdata, it is shown that, on average, workers change occupation and industry less in more densely populated areas, and results from a back-of-the-envelope calibration suggest that this mechanism has an important role in raising both wages and returns to experience in denser areas.

Natural Amenities, Neighbourhood Dynamics, and Persistence in the Spatial Distribution of Income
Sanghoon Lee,Jeffrey Lin +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role of natural amenities in neighborhood dynamics, suburbanization, and variation across cities in the persistence of the spatial distribution of income is highlighted, and a model generates three predictions that confirm using a novel database of consistent-boundary neighbourhoods in U.S. metropolitan areas, 1880-2010.
Journal ArticleDOI
Technological Adaptation, Cities, and New Work
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present evidence on the role of agglomeration economies in the application of new knowledge to production, showing that workers are more likely to be observed in new work in locations initially dense in college graduates and industry variety.
