Using survey data on 2711 Italian respondents collected between 2022 and 2023, we show that living in a peripheral area has a negative impact on the probability of having invested or investing in real estate in the future. OLS estimates suggest that being in a peripheral area reduces the likelihood of having invested in real estate in the last 24 months by about 3–4 percent and the likelihood of investing in real estate in the next 24 months by about 4–6 percent. These results are robust, having tried different models (OLS, probit, bivariate probit, and rare events logistic regression), different control variables, and also an instrumental variable approach to control for the potential endogeneity of homeownership. In this regard, our work introduces a new instrument to tackle the endogeneity problem of homeownership: hereditary motivation to purchase a home. The instrument has all the necessary characteristics to address this problem, such as a very strong first stage. Finally, we adopt a new machine learning algorithm, ABESS, to show the importance of including residence in a peripheral area as an explanatory variable and to select the best subset. This approach could also be exploited in further real estate and regional studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 5","pages":"Article 100113"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145010855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

New York City, severely impacted by Hurricane Sandy in 2012, has developed the Financial District and Seaport Climate Resilience Master Plan (FiDi) as part of its effort to enhance climate resilience in Lower Manhattan. This study evaluates the local economic, environmental, and fiscal impacts of implementing this plan, which represents a US$5 to US$7 billion investment over 10 to 15 years. Using a multi-regional input–output (MRIO) modeling approach, we capture the economic interactions between Lower Manhattan and other New York City boroughs, as well as spillover effects across New York State. We address the substantial uncertainties surrounding the plan’s execution by integrating the S-curve framework to simulate financial disbursement patterns over time. This framework allows for periodic cost–benefit analysis. Our results indicate that the FiDi plan might generate significant net economic benefits, though concentrated environmental impacts occur during specific implementation phases. Tax revenue effects reveal opportunities for enhanced coordination among federal, state, and local governments to support urban resilience initiatives. This research contributes to the literature by demonstrating the utility of combining MRIO modeling with the S-curve framework to address financial uncertainties and assess large-scale infrastructure projects before their implementation. It also offers a replicable framework for ex-ante simulation of the economic and environmental trade-offs of climate resilience projects in cities globally.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 5","pages":"Article 100110"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144903941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper presents a novel method for estimating interregional trade matrices based on a gravity-RAS approach using survey and non-survey data at different aggregation levels. The new aggregate-disaggregate-aggregate RAS method combines estimation of à priori matrices using aggregated survey data with RAS balancing using disaggregated non-survey data for multiple commodities. The paper uses data from the Swedish Commodity Flow Survey to showcase the method's potential to improve estimations of multiregional trade matrices, highlighting trade-offs between aggregation bias and sampling errors. The performance of the method is evaluated using Monte Carlo simulation in an approach that simulates both trade matrices comprised of multiple commodities and a data sampling process for collecting CFS data. Simulation results indicate that RAS balancing at a disaggregated level can significantly improve model accuracy compared to both aggregated and disaggregated methods, highlighting the effectiveness of disaggregate-level RAS balancing. The method is demonstrated using a case study based on Swedish Commodity Flow Survey data, which also illustrates common challenges in MRIO construction under real-world data constraints.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 5","pages":"Article 100111"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144912168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(2020), the paper conceptually analyses the regional industrial market power-induced effect on profit shares elaborating on the role of space. Our idea is that an industrial market power-induced effect exists, but this is heterogeneous across regions due to: i) the different capacity of regions to host superstar firms; ii) the multiplicative negative effects on inequalities that propagate in the area through the local <em>filière</em> of companies. We test these assumptions in European Union regions, thanks to a micro-level approach able to capture the real income redistribution between capital and labor remuneration, in different regions. The industry market power-induced effect on profit share is estimated for 82 industries competing at European level, observed between 2013 and 2019. Our findings suggest that the increase in the firms’ profit share is positively affected by an increasing industrial market power, and that this is higher, the larger the number of superstar firms located in the region. This effect is more intense in regions highly specialized in the same industry as the superstar firms located there.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 4","pages":"Article 100106"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144739058","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our findings show that growing up in neighborhoods characterized by high poverty and low educational attainment reduces the probability of pursuing jobs that require advanced higher education. In contrast, obtaining managerial positions seems less influenced by socioeconomic background.

The analysis reveals that the positive effects of the NGEU are largely overshadowed by the negative impacts of pandemic in most regions. Additionally, when considering the final redistributive effect, including interregional capital and remittance flows, the spatial pattern shifts, indicating that despite overall improvements, core regions capture rents from peripheral regions, leading to anti-cohesion outcomes.
