In this paper we analyse the commuting distribution from a job search perspective.We have examined under which … conditions the commuting distribution is unimodal which isone of the stylised facts of commuting. It appears that a necessary … commuting density function as we observe it. …

We study the long-term impact of job displacement on workers' commuting behavior. Our measures of commuting exploit geo …-coordinates of workers' places of residence and places of work, from which we calculate the door-to-door commuting distance and … commuting time. Using German employee-employer matched data and an event study design, we identify the causal effect of job loss …

We exploit administrative data on exact commuting distances for a large sample of German employees and study the … relation of commuting and wages. We find that it requires 1.5 times as much money in terms of higher wages for job changers to …

We analyze the causal effect of commuting on wages, using a large sample of German job changers. Information on their …-to-door commuting distances with an unprecedented degree of precision. We use a theoretical model on spatial job search to motivate our … heterogeneity. We find an asymmetric valuation of distance changes. Job changers value a reduction of their commuting distance …

We estimate female and male workers' marginal willingness to pay to reduce commuting distance in Germany, using a … partial-equilibrium model of job search with non-wage job attributes. Commuting costs have implications not just for … wage) to reduce commuting distance at the margin. The average men's marginal willingness to pay is similar to childless …
