Testing for clustering of industries : evidence from micro geographic data
Scholl, Tobias; Brenner, Thomas - 2011
We present a new statistical method that describes the localization patterns of industries in a continuous space. The … proposed method does not divide space into subunits whereby it is not affected by the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem (MAUP). Our … method fulfils all five criteria for a spatial statistical test of localization proposed by Duranton and Overman (2005) and …
