Well done. You've clicked the tower. This would actually achieve something if you had logged in first. Use the key for that. The name takes you home. This is where all the applicables sit. And you can't apply any changes to my site unless you are logged in.

Our policy is best summarized as "we don't care about _you_, we care about _them_", no emails, so no forgetting your password. You have no rights. It's like you don't even exist. If you publish material, I reserve the right to remove it, or use it myself.

Don't impersonate. Don't name someone involuntarily. You can lose everything if you cross the line, and no, I won't cancel your automatic payments first, so you'll have to do it the hard way. See how serious this sounds? That's how serious you're meant to take these.

The benefits and costs of agglomeration: insights from economics and complexity

Click here to flash read.

arXiv:2404.13178v1 Announce Type: cross
Abstract: There are many benefits and costs that come from people and firms clustering together in space. Agglomeration economies, in particular, are the manifestation of centripetal forces that make larger cities disproportionately more wealthy than smaller cities, pulling together individuals and firms in close physical proximity. Measuring agglomeration economies, however, is not easy, and the identification of its causes is still debated. Such association of productivity with size can arise from interactions that are facilitated by cities ("positive externalities"), but also from more productive individuals moving in and sorting into large cities ("self-sorting"). Under certain circumstances, even pure randomness can generate increasing returns to scale. In this chapter, we discuss some of the empirical observations, models, measurement challenges, and open question associated with the phenomenon of agglomeration economies. Furthermore, we discuss the implications of urban complexity theory, and in particular urban scaling, for the literature in agglomeration economies.
