It was long characteristic of American cities that the rich lived on the edges while the poor
lived in the centers. In the 197Os, however, that residential pattern began to change as rich
households moved into many city centers, displacing the poor. In this paper, we offer au ...

In this article we analyze data from a natural experiment with rationing by waiting. In the
situation we studied, motorists were confronted with a choice between waiting in line for low-
priced gasoline or purchasing at a higher price without waiting. We view this as a revealed ...

This paper presents a model explaining the spatial concentration of crime. The model

however, that in equilibrium crime concentrates in one neighborhood. In a dynamic ...

Summary Thirty years ago, California embarked on a fundamental reform of its system for
financing public schools. The impetus was Serrano v. Priest, a suit brought in 1968 by the
Western Center on Law and Poverty. At the time, California school districts were raising ...

The welfare cost of free public schools is the difference between the cost of those schools
and the maximum parents would be willing to pay to send their children to those schools.
Estimates based on data from California school districts in 1970 indicate that this welfare ...

In 1993, Californians voted on a school voucher initiative. We hypothesize that homeowners
in good school districts understood the voucher to be a threat to their property values and
thus voted against it. Precinct returns from Los Angeles County confirm this hypothesis. ...

A school voucher would decrease property values in neighborhoods with superior public
schools and increase property values in neighborhoods with inferior public schools. These
potential gains and losses may influence voting on voucher initiatives, particularly for ...

Abstract: Concludes that public school enrollments are not very sensitive to public school
spending, so that it seems unlikely that a major cutback in public school spending will trigger
the hypothesized unraveling of the public schools. Journal availability: see EA 511 898.( ...

Two events, the 1971 decision of the State Supreme Court in Serrano v. Priest and the 1978
passage of Proposition 13, have revolutionized school finance in California. Before Serrano,
the State provided foundation aid to local school districts, and the districts supplemented ...

California has transferred the financing of its public schools from localities to the state. In
response, many families have supplemented the tax revenue of their local public schools
with voluntary contributions. This paper analyzes that phenomenon. We propose a model ...

With price controls and rationing by waiting, rational consumers increase the quantity bought
per purchase. This individually rational response is socially wasteful and the cost of making
it is a deadweight loss. This cost plus the value of time spent in queues may exceed the ...

Abstract When the price of a good is controlled, a nonprice allocation rule must necessarily
be substituted for allocation by price. Examples are first come-first served allocation, which
gives rise to rationing by waiting, and allocation by an explicit system of ration coupons. ...
