摘要

经济地理数据通常使用县等政治单位进行报告，而这些单位往往与经济单位不匹配。通勤区（CZ）将各县划分为劳动力市场。然而，对于其他经济活动而言，通勤区并不是最合适的分组方式。我们引入了消费区（ConZs），即适合消费分析的县域分组。我们将 CZ 方法应用于支付卡数据，该数据报告了美国 15 个行业的跨县消费流。我们发现，不同行业有不同的市场规模。杂货店的 ConZ 数量是娱乐业的五倍多。我们将 ConZs 用于衡量行业集中度。

Consumption zones

Economic geography data are typically reported using political units, such as counties, which often do not match economic units. Commuting zones (CZs) group counties into labor markets. However, CZs are not the most appropriate grouping for other economic activities. We introduce consumption zones (ConZs), groupings of counties appropriate for the analysis of consumption. We apply CZ methodology to payment card data, which report spending flows across US counties for fifteen industries. We find that different industries have different market sizes. Grocery stores have more than five times the number of ConZs as entertainment. We apply ConZs to measuring industry concentration.

期刊介绍： The aims of the Journal of Economic Geography are to redefine and reinvigorate the intersection between economics and geography, and to provide a world-class journal in the field. The journal is steered by a distinguished team of Editors and an Editorial Board, drawn equally from the two disciplines. It publishes original academic research and discussion of the highest scholarly standard in the field of ''economic geography'' broadly defined. Submitted papers are refereed, and are evaluated on the basis of their creativity, quality of scholarship, and contribution to advancing understanding of the geographic nature of economic systems and global economic change.
