Thrilled to have this paper with Hansen Shao, "The Dynamics of Internal Migration: A New Fact and its Implications" accepted. We hope it changes the way you think about internal migration and that it provides a useful tool for economists to model location choices.

The gap in incomes between rich and poor places stayed historically high in 2024. (Based on new @BEA_News local personal income data for 2024.)

I highly recommend the JEP Symposium on housing markets. Great papers on regional & aggregate prices; low-end spillovers of building at high-end; why people don’t understand housing supply & demand; construction costs; evidence from other countries. aeaweb.org/issues/814

@AlexUsherHESA @JoshGoodman_BU @restatjournal I wish I could tell you! What we did find is that a significant chunk of the resilience offered by universities comes from the resilience of the university itself (in terms of both finances and enrollment), but that's only a partial answer.

@greg_l_howard @JoshGoodman_BU @restatjournal Interesting, thanks What piques my curiosity is whether universities are better for local economies than other sorts of public investments. If you were a small community and you could choose a $50M investment in a hospital vs. a uni, which should you pick? Or does it matter?

Third, while short-run migration elasticities are comparable to existing models, the long-run elasticities are completely different. (In this new version, we provide a trick for people who love the tractability of moving cost models to still get the elasticities right)
