Abstract | Using pooled data from eight U.S. censuses (primarily state-level and university county-level variables), this study finds a significant positive effect of university community size on state aggregate personal income growth. Weaker effects are found on state employment growth (positive) and state population growth (negative). States might leverage greater economic benefits from siting university programs in larger urban areas. (20 references) (MLH) |
