Urban planning policies and the cost of living in large cities
Comparing cities in developed and developing countries
Human capital divergence and the size distribution of cities
This article studies how the changing geographic distribution of skilled workers in the US affects theoretical models that use Gibrat’s law to explain the size distribution of cities. In the empirical literature, a divergence hypothesis holds that college share increases faster in cities where college share is larger, and a growth hypothesis maintains that the rate of city population growth is also directly related to initial college share. Exami…
Measuring human capital divergence in a growing economy
The energy implications of city size and density
Economics of Crime and Enforcement
This text is designed for use in a course on the economics of crime in a variety of settings. Assuming only a previous course in basic microeconomics, this innovative book is strongly linked to the new theoretical and empirical journal literature. Showing the power of microeconomics in action, Yezer covers a wide array of topics. There are chapters on the following topics: benefit-cost and the imprisonment decision, enforcement games, juvenile cr…
Energy footprint of the city
Do inter-city differences in intra-city wage differentials have any interesting implications
Credit Rationing in the U.S. Mortgage Market
Does Studying Economics Discourage Cooperation? Watch What We Do, Not What We Say or How We Play
Based on what economics students say and how they play games, economics students appear less cooperative than other students. But appearances can be deceiving: the evidence in this paper indicates that the actual behavior of economics students is more cooperative than that of other students. The authors carried out a 'lost letter' experiment, in which envelopes containing currency were dropped in classrooms and the return rate measured. In this t…
Causality in the Suburbanization of Population and Employment
Sources of Metropolitan Growth
Interregional Wage Differential Dynamics
Urban location and housing price appreciation
Urban Location and Housing Price Appreciation
An indirect test of efficient city sizes
