Abstract

The objectives of this study are twofold. Firstly, a simultaneous-equations model that takes into account the interaction between various economic aspects of urban growth, and migration to and from urban areas is specified. Secondly, the model is estimated for the 100 largest Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas in the United States. Among the jointly dependent variables utilized are civilian labor force outmigration, civilian labor force inmigration, income growth, employment growth, unemployment growth, and natural increase of the civilian labor force.
