By: Glenn Ellison, Edward Glaeser and William R. Kerr
Why do firms cluster near one another? We test Marshall's theories of industrial agglomeration by examining which industries locate near one another, or coagglomerate. We construct pairwise coagglomeration indices for US manufacturing industries from the Economic...

Clusters of Entrepreneurship

Local Industrial Conditions and Entrepreneurship: How Much of the Spatial Distribution Can We Explain?

What Causes Industry Agglomeration? Evidence from Coagglomeration Patterns
