Minimum wage spillovers may arise from two channels shifting housing demand: migration or minimum wage impacts on low-wage worker real income. Reduced-form estimation and a pooled event study exploit state-by-year variation from 1985—2023 in effective minimum wages to estimate the minimum wage’s impact on below median housing rents and low-wage worker population shares. The empirical strategies rely on rent data from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Fair Market Rents series and American Community Survey population shares data from the United States Census Bureau. The minimum wage has an inconclusive effect on low-wage worker population shares while reducing rents. A $1 minimum wage increase reduces below-median monthly rents by 0.7 – 2 percentage points. In contrast to the limited existing evidence for the minimum wage raising local housing prices, this paper’s evidence of the minimum wage decreasing below-median local housing rents contributes to the literature by suggesting a heterogeneous housing price response to increasing the minimum wage. It also offers new evidence affirming that higher minimum wages improve housing affordability.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46061,"journal":{"name":"ATLANTIC ECONOMIC JOURNAL","volume":"53 1-2","pages":"37 - 52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11293-025-09824-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145164620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since increases and decreases in subnational population tend to offset each other resulting in a more subdued change at the national level, the challenge of population volatility is therefore largely a subnational problem. This research defines a parametric function called <i>ɛ</i>-volatility to analyze population volatility across the 50 states of the United States and the District of Columbia between 2010 and 2019. Three levels of volatility were considered to cover the full range of population changes: <i>ɛ</i>-normal, mildly <i>ɛ</i>-volatile, and strongly <i>ɛ</i>-volatile. Using data from the U.S. Census Bureau and Bureau of Labor Statistics, a multinomial linear regression model was used to examine the impact of educational attainment, unemployment, housing starts, wage, age and race on subnational volatility. The results suggest that subnational population volatility is most strongly influenced by the older working age group (45–64) that are at least high school graduates. The younger working age-group (18–44) also positively impacted population volatility regardless of educational attainment. The senior population (65 +) with high school or higher education affected population volatility to a lesser extent under certain circumstances. High population volatility can lead to urban squalor, congestion and fewer resources for social and municipal services. The ability to identify strong, mild, and normal population volatility can facilitate the formulation of policy decision-making at all levels.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46061,"journal":{"name":"ATLANTIC ECONOMIC JOURNAL","volume":"53 1-2","pages":"53 - 71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11293-025-09819-1.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145163049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, the dynamic connectivity between United Kingdom government spending and economic growth is assessed through the concept of causality. Since the implementation of economic policy can asymmetrically affect output dynamics, both linear and nonlinear causality tests are employed. The empirical findings underscore the feature of nonlinearity. The detected nonlinear causality appears to be subject to different economic regimes. During the Great Moderation, the linear connectivity between government spending and economic growth strengthened, while in the post-2007 era, the absence of substantial linkages supports the idea that the information transmission channel between government spending and economic growth is broken. The study’s novelty lies in the implementation of linear and nonlinear causality tests within a rolling windows analysis framework. This approach enables the exploration of connectivity characteristics between United Kingdom government spending and output growth under changing monetary policy and economic stances. The findings confirm the role of fiscal policy as an economic stabilizer, mainly during periods of loose monetary policy with moderate inflation and predominantly positive economic growth rates. The results also reveal a significant structural break in 2007, coinciding with a change in monetary conditions and a period of limited fiscal control over output growth.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46061,"journal":{"name":"ATLANTIC ECONOMIC JOURNAL","volume":"52 4","pages":"187 - 200"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142939324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This analysis offers a comprehensive perspective on the factors contributing to C-section disparities by considering mothers' demographic characteristics, health conditions, and infant health status. Using multivariable logistic regression, the findings reveal consistently higher C-section rates for non-Hispanic Black mothers compared to non-Hispanic White mothers, with the gap widening over time. Even after adjusting for sociodemographic and health-related factors, non-Hispanic Black mothers remained more likely to undergo C-sections. Using Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition methods, key factors contributing to this C-section rates disparity include maternal age, the source of delivery payment, and fetal presentation. This study highlights the pressing need for further investigation into healthcare system factors and racial inequities driving these disparities, alongside the growing urgency for policy and practical interventions to reduce unnecessary C-sections.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46061,"journal":{"name":"ATLANTIC ECONOMIC JOURNAL","volume":"52 4","pages":"213 - 228"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11293-024-09815-x.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142939332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
