  • 2025/05: When developers hold office: shaping housing supply through local politics

    Ghizlen Ouasbaa, Albert Solé-Ollé, Elisabet Viladecans-Marsal

    We examine the impact of city council members with real estate backgrounds on housing supply in California 1995-2019. Using candidate occupation data and a close-elections regression discontinuity design, we find that electing a developer increases approved housing units by 68% during their term. This effect fades after one term, suggesting...

    Miquel-Àngel Garcia-López, Luz Yadira Gómez-Hernández, Rosa Sanchis-Guarner

    This paper provides a theoretical framework to study the relationship between expanded road capacity, traffic volumes and increased economic activity. We build on Anas (2024) to show that increased traffic volumes do not necessarily lead to congestion if adjustments in econòmic factors, such as population or employment, are not substantial....

    This paper examines the lasting impact of tourism specialization on per capita income in Spanish municipalities, aiming to understand the factors driving these effects. We employ two distinct approaches. The first one focuses on tourism development since the initial boom in the 1960s and relies on cross-sectional variation in tourism...

    Rosa Sanchis-Guarner, Nikodem Szumilo, Antoine Vernet

    We study the impact of improved rail access on entrepreneurship rates in England and Wales. We use data from the Census spanning 2001, 2011, and 2021 to analyse self-employment rates in granular geographic areas of around 200 residents. Specifically, we study how they respond to changes in the distance to...
