How Do The Effects Of Local Growth On Employment Rates Vary With Initial Labor Market Conditions?, Timothy Bartik
Timothy J. Bartik
This paper examines how the effects of increased employment growth on a metropolitan area's employment to population ratio varies with the initial tightness of the metropolitan area's labor market. This examination is relevant to evaluating the benefits of local economic development policies in different metropolitan areas. Much of the benefits of such policies are in higher employment rates.
