《Estimating Neighborhood Choice Models: Lessons from a Housing Assistance Experiment》
此篇论文发表在2015年American Economic Review上。 作者重点分析了房屋补助的限制对贫困街区的经济影响。
简介
We use data from a housing-assistance experiment to estimate a model of neighborhood choice. The experimental variation effectively randomizes the rents which households face and helps identify a key structural parameter. Access to two randomly selected treatment groups and a controlgroup allows for out-of-sample validation of the model. We simulate the effects of changing the subsidy-use constraints implemented in the actual experiment. We find that restricting subsidies to even lower poverty neighborhoods would substantially reduce take-up and actually increase averageexposure to poverty. Furthermore, adding restrictions based on neighborhood racial composition would not change average exposure to either race or poverty.
