Info IEB. Decomposing the impact of immigration on house prices. Number 45. December 2023

Recent large population displacements have renewed interest in analysing the effects of large immigration inflows across locations. For example, recent papers have looked at local impact of large refugee waves from Ukraine or Syria.
