The article examines how and to what extent municipal finances are affected by a city's position in an urban hierarchy. A distinction is made between collective and individual services on the one hand, and job‐ and residence‐related services on the other. It is hypothesized that job‐related collective services are more affected by a city's centrality than other services, and that residence‐related individual services are least affected. By and large, the results of the analyses lend support to this hypothesis, although they are inconclusive as to the difference between job‐ and residence‐related collective services. Altogether, the analysis demonstrates the importance of taking a city's centrality into consideration when assessing its financial problems
