Measuring Commuting and Economic Activity inside Cities with Cell Phone Records

Kreindler, Gabriel E.; Miyauchi, Yuhei - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2021

We show how to use commuting flows to infer the spatial distribution of income within a city. A simple workplace choice … model predicts a gravity equation for commuting flows whose destination fixed effects correspond to wages. We implement this … data, yet achieves comparable predictive power. We show that hartals (transportation strikes) in Dhaka reduce commuting …

Trade, integration, and interregional inequality

Hirte, Georg; Lessmann, Christian - 2014 - This version: April 08, 2014

We study the effect of international trade and freeness of trade (openness) on interregional inequality within countries. We estimate a model derived from a structural economic-geography approach in which interregional inequality depends on weighted trade shares and trade costs. In addition to...

Trade and interregional inequality

Hirte, Georg; Lessmann, Christian - 2013 - This version: February 20, 2013

We study the effect of international trade and freeness of trade on interregional inequality within countries. While most studies focus on single countries and only some use a small panel of countries, we use the two largest databases available to examine these issues. One database is provided...
