Unravelling urban advantages : a meta-analysis of agglomeration economies
Donovan, Stuart; Graaff, Thomas de; Groot, Henri L. F. de; … - 2021
A large body of literature considers the productive advantages of cities, or "agglomeration economies". Most empirical … studies report positive agglomeration economies, although large variation exists in the magnitude of estimates. We use a meta …, we find agglomeration elasticities are likely to lie in the range 2.7-6.4%. Our findings confirm the controls enabled by …

Productivity effects of an exogenous improvement in transport infrastructure : accessibility and the Great Belt Bridge
De Borger, Bruno L.; Mulalic, Ismir; Rouwendal, Jan - 2019
Most studies of the effects of transport infrastructure on the performance of individual firms have focused on marginal expansions of the rail or highway network over time. In this paper, we study the short-run effects of a large discrete shock in the quality of transport infrastructure, viz....

The impact of industrial sites on residential property values
Vor, Friso de; Groot, Henri L. F. de - 2009
Industrial sites cause several negative externalities, such as traffic noise disturbance, congestion, and obstruction of view. In order to quantify the negative effects stemming from industrial sites, we estimate - using a hedonic pricing model - the impact of distance to industrial sites on...

The impact of mixed land use on residential property values
Koster, Hans; Rouwendal, Jan - 2010 - This version: October 15, 2010
Contemporary European urban planning policies aim to mix land uses in compact neighbourhoods. It is presumed that mixing land uses yields socio-economic benefits and therefore has a positive effect on housing values. In this paper, we investigate the impact of mixed land use on housing values...

Competing risks in a time on the market analysis
Wit, Erik R. de - 2010
Theoretical models on the selling process in the housing market are scarce. Taylor (1999) specifies a model where time-on-the-market gives a quality signal of the house to potential buyers if inspection outcomes of the house are not public. We specify a duration model with competing risks, where...

The accuracy of inference in small samples of dynamic panel data models
Bun, Maurice J. G.; Kiviet, J. F. - 2001
Through Monte Carlo experiments the small sample behavior is examinedof various inference techniques for dynamic panel data models whenboth the time-series and cross-section dimensions of the data set aresmall. The LSDV technique and corrected versions of it are comparedwith IV and GMM...
