Behaviour-based dependency networks between places shape urban economic resilience - Nature Human Behaviour
Yabe and colleagues use human mobility data to identify dependencies in visitation patterns between places in cities, with unexpected prevalence at long-distance connections. Leveraging this network e...

i) Oberfield, Rossi-Hansberg, Sarte & Trachter, @jpolecon.bsky.social. Firms choose plant density in tractable model of trade-off between distance to consumers vs span-of-control, fixed costs & cannibalization; productive firms place more plants in dense high-rent areas, less elsewhere t.ly/N4Jds
Plants in Space | Journal of Political Economy: Vol 132, No 3
To decide the number, size, and location of its plants, a firm balances the benefit of delivering goods from multiple plants with the cost of setting up and managing these plants and the potential for...
