通过明确考虑地方区域劳动力市场的空间维度，我们开发了一个简单的动态模型来解释失业率之间的空间相关性。然后，我们使用英国当地的数据来测试这个模型。我们的证据表明，一个显着的空间依赖性，一直在增长，随着时间的推移，其特点是低距离衰减。高度本地化的影响是由通勤流解释。这些结果与理论模型一致。
By explicitly considering the spatial dimension of local regional labor markets, we develop a simple dynamic model that explains the spatial correlation between unemployment rates. We then test this model by using UK local data. Our evidence shows a significant spatial dependence that has been growing over time and characterized by a low distance decay. Highly localized effects are explained by commuting flows. These results are consistent with the theoretical model.
