在本文中，我研究了过去三十年来美国大都市地区的城市和人口增长之间的关系。我开发了一个结构实证模型，将城市收入增长与郊区收入、人口和房屋价值的增长联系起来。该模型考虑了城市对郊区和郊区对城市的双向影响，以及影响城市和郊区的未观察到的因素。同时，潜变量模型识别使用排除和协方差的组合restrictions.Instrumental估计结果表明，在大城市的收入增长，提高了可持续发展的bangrowsgrowth，但在小城市的收入增长的影响不大。
In this paper I examine the relationship between city and suburbangrowth over the last three decades for a sample of U.S. metropolitan areas. I develop a structuralempirical model relating city income growth to suburban growth in income, population, andhouse values. The model allows for bidirectional effects of cities on suburbs and suburbs oncities, as well as for unobserved factors affecting both city and suburbs. The simultaneous,latent-variable model is identified using a combination of exclusion and covariance restrictions.Instrumental estimation results indicate that income growth in large cities enhances suburbangrowth; but income growth in small cities has little effect.
