Book Employment Deconcentration in European Metropolitan Areas

Download or read book Employment Deconcentration in European Metropolitan Areas written by Eran Razin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-09-06 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comparative perspective on employment deconcentration within selected European metropolitan areas. The book introduces a comparative framework, followed by eight chapter-length case studies: three based in northern Europe, three in the south European-Mediterranean region and two in post-Communist central Europe. Most chapters examine two metropolitan areas, usually a large and a smaller one. The comparison reveals considerable variations in the magnitude, form, and process of employment deconcentration.

Book Population  Place  and Spatial Interaction

Download or read book Population Place and Spatial Interaction written by Rachel S. Franklin and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-23 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is devoted to the geographical—or spatial—aspects of population research in regional science, spanning spatial demographic methods for population composition and migration to studies of internal and international migration to investigations of the role of population in related fields such as climate change and economic growth. If spatial aspects of economic growth and development are the flagship of the regional science discipline, population research is the anchor. People migrate, consume, produce, and demand services. People are the source and beneficiaries of national, regional, and local growth and development. Since the origins of regional science, demographic research has been at the core of the discipline. Contributions in this volume are both retrospective and prospective, offering in their ensemble an authoritative overview of demographic research within the field of regional science.

Book Missed Opportunity

Download or read book Missed Opportunity written by Adie Tomer and published by . This book was released on 2011-05-09 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the U.S., nearly 30 million trips are made every day using public transit. Almost all of these trips occur in the nation's 100 largest metro areas, which account for over 95% of all transit passenger miles traveled. Seven percent of workers in these metropolitan areas, or 6.5 million overall, rely on some form of public transit for their commutes. For lower-income residents the share is even higher, 11%. But when it comes to the question of how effectively transit connects people and jobs within and across these metropolitan areas, strikingly little is known. This report is drawn from a comprehensive database which has been developed to provide the first comparable, detailed look at transit coverage and connectivity across and within the nation's major metro areas. It combines transportation data with neighborhood-level information on income and employment to characterize access to jobs via transit. The results reveal considerable variation in transit coverage and service levels across the country, and in how effectively systems connect workers to jobs, including the jobs they may be most likely tohold. The report begins by providing background on factors that influence the reach and efficiency of transit in metropolitan areas. After describing the data and methods used to profile transit in the 100largest U.S. metropolitan areas, the report presents a series of measures that characterize transit access across and within these metro areas. Along the way, it assesses the regional and local factors that relate to how well transit serves metropolitan populations and connects them to employment. The report concludes with a range of implications for policymakers, employers, and workers at all levels. Figures and tables. This is a print on demand report.

Book Permanently Displaced  Increasingly Disconnected  Labor Force Participation in U S  States and Metropolitan Areas

Download or read book Permanently Displaced Increasingly Disconnected Labor Force Participation in U S States and Metropolitan Areas written by Benjamin Hilgenstock and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-05-21 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States stands out among advanced economies with marked declines in labor force participation. National averages furthermore conceal considerable within-country heterogeneity. This paper explores regional differences to shed light on drivers of participation rates at the state and metropolitan area levels. It documents a broad-based decline, especially pronounced outside metropolitan areas. Using novel measures of local vulnerability to trade and technology it finds that metropolitan areas with higher exposures to routinization and offshoring experienced larger drops in participation in 2000-2016. Thus, areas with different occupational mixes can experience divergent labor market trajectories as a result of trade and technology.

Book Governance and Opportunity in Metropolitan America

Download or read book Governance and Opportunity in Metropolitan America written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-09-10 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's cities have symbolized the nation's prosperity, dynamism, and innovation. Even with the trend toward suburbanization, many central cities attract substantial new investment and employment. Within this profile of health, however, many urban areas are beset by problems of economic disparity, physical deterioration, and social distress. This volume addresses the condition of the city from the perspective of the larger metropolitan region. It offers important, thought-provoking perspectives on the structure of metropolitan-level decisionmaking, the disadvantages faced by cities and city residents, and expanding economic opportunity to all residents in a metropolitan area. The book provides data, real-world examples, and analyses in key areas: Distribution of metropolitan populations and what this means for city dwellers, suburbanites, whites, and minorities. How quality of life depends on the spatial structure of a community and how problems are based on inequalities in spatial opportunityâ€"with a focus on the relationship between taxes and services. The role of the central city today, the rationale for revitalizing central cities, and city-suburban interdependence. The book includes papers that provide in-depth examinations of zoning policy in relation to patterns of suburban development; regionalism in transportation and air quality; the geography of economic and social opportunity; social stratification in metropolitan areas; and fiscal and service disparities within metropolitan areas.

Download or read book Post industrial America written by Rutgers University. Center for Urban Policy Research and published by New Brunswick, N.J. : Center for Urban Policy Research, Rutgers - the State University of New Jersey. This book was released on 1975 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Metropolitan and regional economic and demographic shifts - now manifested in the stagnation or decline of America's old industrial region - pose consequences more far-reaching than the urban-suburban shifts which have heretofore claimed public attention. This collection of original essays examines why the focus of development is shifting away from older metropolitan regions and begins to mold policy in regard to a number of vexing issues: jobs and earnings, labor force characteristics, housing supplies, public expenditures, land use, tax delinquency and abandonment, and the struggle for racial equality. George Sternlieb and James W. Hugues have focused on three approaches to metropolitan change: examining the economic and demographic trendlines, analyzing the causes underlying the statistics, and considering the policy implications of stagnation or decline in our older cities."--Jacket.
