This paper examines the microfoundations of agglomeration economies for US
manufacturing industries. Using industries as observations, we regress the Ellison–Glaeser …

In recent empirical literature on spatial agglomeration, many papers find evidence consistent
with location‐specific externalities of some sort. Our willingness to accept evidence of …

Plant‐level data from the Longitudinal Research Database of the US Bureau of the Census
are employed to estimate the impact of agglomeration economies on industry productivity …

This paper utilizes a newly created index for colocalization to estimate the determinants of
industrial agglomeration within a single urban area. Our new index directly incorporates the …

This paper considers the empirical literature on the nature and sources of urban increasing
returns, also known as agglomeration economies. An important aspect of these externalities …

Spatial spillovers and inter-dependencies among industries are often ignored in

This paper makes two contributions to the empirical literature on agglomeration economies.
First, the paper uses a unique and rich database in conjunction with mapping software to …

We propose an integrated framework to discuss the empirical literature on the local
determinants of agglomeration effects. We start by presenting the theoretical mechanisms …
