Changing work/places
This paper investigates the geographical implications of the post-COVID surge in remote working across Great Britain, contributing to the literature a new conceptual distinction between fully remote work and ‘office-centric’ versus ‘remote-centric’ hybrid roles. Drawing on the UK Labour Force Survey 2022 and 2025, it analyses relationships between different modalities of remote work and residential patterns, internal migration and regional econom…

A flash in the pan or a permanent change? The growth of homeworking during the pandemic and its effect on employee productivity in the UK
Purpose This paper has three aims: Firstly, it puts the pandemic-induced surge in homeworking into context by charting trends in homeworking in the UK since the early 1980s. Secondly, it examines what effect the growth in homeworking during the pandemic has had on employees' self-reported levels of productivity. Thirdly, it assesses whether the spike in homeworking is a flash in the pan or a permanent feature of the post-pandemic world. Design/me…
Precarious self-employment in urban Europe
Urban and regional research has focused on opportunity entrepreneurship and how cities can promote growth through the ‘right’ type of entrepreneurship. This neglects the increasing risk of precarious self-employment reflected in the compositional change of self-employment towards self-employment with no employees (‘solo self-employment’). This article tests whether precarious self-employment is more prevalent in urban areas, in parallel to more e…
The engagement of home-based businesses in the digital economy
This paper explores the engagement of home-based businesses in digital trading, measured as proportion of their sales from buying and selling services and products online of all their sales. Findings are drawn from a sample of 994 Small- and Medium-Sized Businesses that are members of the Federation of Small Businesses in Scotland. Multivariate findings show that home-based businesses are associated with high proportions of online sales supportin…
Daily mobility patterns of small business owners and homeworkers in post-industrial cities
Locating creativity in the city using Twitter data
This study applies a new methodology using the location of tweets from creatives to study where economic creativity takes place in a city. Based on a Twitter network in Brighton and Hove (United Kingdom), a creative hub, we identify freelancers and entrepreneurs in the creative industries that form the ‘core’ of the ‘creative class’ but have rarely been captured in existing spatial research. We use a comprehensive geodatabase of ‘Points-of-Intere…
New spatialities of work in the city
This introduction discusses the objectives and concepts underlying the Special Issue on the new spatialities of work in the city. It highlights the urban impact of both the changing spatiotemporal working patterns and the increased diversity of workspaces that have resulted from post-industrial restructuring, globalisation, labour market flexibilisation and digitisation. Even pre-COVID-19, when the research in this Special Issue was undertaken, t…
Spatial and temporal segmenting of urban workplaces
Existing urban research has focused on gender differences in commuting patterns to and from homes, but has paid little attention to the gendered diversity in the spatiotemporal patterns of work. The increase in remote working and information and communications technology (ICT) work has been emphasised, but at the cost of exploring the full range of workplaces and multi-locational working observed in urban areas. This article develops a new classi…
Digital futures of small businesses and entrepreneurial opportunity
Coworking in homes – Mitigating the tensions of the freelance economy
Changing workplace geographies in the Covid-19 crisis
COVID-19 has fundamentally changed workplace geographies with large proportions of people working at home during the ‘Great Lockdown’. This commentary argues that working at home has emerged as a key policy response and one in which inequalities are embedded. We outline the nature of these social and spatial inequalities by examining existing evidence and data for the Global North, and consider some of the economic and policy challenges ahead
Revisiting the gender gap in commuting through self-employment
The intra-urban residential and workplace locations of small business owners
The notion that buzz, creativity, diversity, openness, and a sense of bohemia in cities are important to attract creative workers and entrepreneurs has grown in prominence both in academic literatures and in city economic development strategies. However, there is a disjuncture in the literature and a dearth of evidence as to whether entrepreneurs seek bohemian (open, diverse) places in which to live or to locate their business. This study explore…
The subjective well-being of homeworkers across life domains
This paper extends the view of homeworking as a type of flexible working by employees in organisations aimed at improving work-life balance and job satisfaction, to a type of work that encapsulates significant changes of work towards increased self-employment and casual work, high proportions of which are performed in people's homes. Such changes to work represent a reconfiguration of the spatial separation and relationship between place of work …
Entrepreneurial Neighbourhoods
Despite the growing evidence on the importance of the neighbourhood, entrepreneurship studies have largely neglected the role of neighbourhoods. This book addresses the nexus between entrepreneurship, neighbourhoods and communities, confirming not only the importance of ‘the local’ in entrepreneurship, but also filling huge gaps in the knowledge base regarding this tripartite relationship
City economies and microbusiness growth
In developed countries, microbusinesses (those employing fewer than 10 people) and home-based businesses have been systematically overlooked in urban economic development thinking. This article assesses the influence of city location and being run from the business owner’s home on microbusiness growth, based on empirical analysis of panel firm-level data over a four-year period during the UK’s long boom. The analysis reveals that cities provide b…
The Importance of Housing for Self-employment
This article demonstrates that housing influences decisions to start businesses or become self-employed. Housing characteristics can facilitate or hinder business start-ups, and the mechanisms depend on whether the business start-up takes place in people’s homes or not. Hitherto, economic geography has largely viewed housing as a system that accommodates and filters the workforce across space and neglected that housing is an economic resource to …
Entrepreneurship in Cities
Entrepreneurship in Cities focuses on the neglected role of the home and the residential neighbourhood context for entrepreneurship and businesses within cities. The overall objective of the book is to develop a new interdisciplinary perspective that links entrepreneurship research with neighbourhood and urban studies. A key contribution is to show that entrepreneurship in cities is more than agglomeration economies and high-tech clusters. This i…
The Economies of Urban Diversity
The Economics of Urban Diversity explores ethnic and religious minorities in urban economies. In this exciting work, the contributors develop an integrative approach to urban diversity and economy by
Self‐employment, Internal Migration and Place Embeddedness
Little is known about the individual location behaviour of self‐employed entrepreneurs. Population geography has not researched this issue and entrepreneurship literature has given it little attention. This paper examines whether self‐employed entrepreneurs are ‘rooted’ in place and also whether those who are more rooted in place are more likely to enter self‐employment, thereby shedding new light onto the place embeddedness of self‐employment. D…
Self-Employment as a Route In and Out of Britain's South East
Reuschke D. Self-employment as a route in and out of Britain's South East, Regional Studies. Based on A. J. Fielding's Escalator Region Model (ERM) on South East England, this paper examines whether the South East exports its ‘entrepreneurial culture’ and gains entrepreneurial resources through internal migration using the British Household Panel Survey (BHPS) 1991–2008. Results show that, consistent with the ERM, the region loses entrepreneurs. …
Housing Assets and Small Business Investment
Reuschke D. and Maclennan D. Housing assets and small business investment: exploring links for theory and policy, Regional Studies. Housing market activity and firm formation are both positively correlated with the business cycle, and the levels of mortgage lending to business owners and funding of small firms have fallen in the UK since 2008. This paper explores a neglected, causal linkage between housing assets and small business investment and…
Testing the 'Residential Rootedness' Hypothesis of Self-Employment for Germany and the UK
Based on the notion that entrepreneurship is a 'local event', the literature argues that entrepreneurs are 'rooted' in place. This paper tests the 'residential rootedness' hypothesis of self-employment by examining for Germany and the UK whether the self-employed are less likely to move over long distances (internal migration) than workers in paid employment. Using longitudinal data from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP) and the Britis…

Job-induced Commuting between Two Residences - Characteristics of a Multilocational Living Arrangement in the Late Modernity
Against the background of the ongoing flexibilisation of labour markets and a rising labour force participation of (highly) qualified women, job-related commuting between a main and secondary residence has become more important in Western capitalist countries as is the case in contemporary Germany. The limited number of recent empirical studies on this kind of multilocational living arrangement almost entirely focuses on commuters in couple/famil…

Living apart together over long distances – time-space patterns and consequences of a late-modern living arrangement
In this paper people living apart together at a greater distance with his/her partner (long distance LATs) are investigated, using empirical evidence from Germany. Previous research did not apply a distinction between couples which live apart over long distance or in close proximity. In official statistics and surveys across Europe and North America the spatialities of LAT unions is not captured either. The present results, which are based on a r…
