The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 two-year Project Grant to support a postdoctoral fellowship investigating the impact of urbanization on income inequality across U.S. cities. The grant was awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) to promote basic research and education in the social, behavioral and economic sciences. The fellowship, beginning September 1, 2022 and ending August 31, 2024, will be conducted at Winter Hill, Massachusetts under the sponsorship of Dr. Michael Storper at the University of California, Los Angeles. The fellow will probe disparities in the "urban wage premium" phenomenon using new data sources and methods. Panel regression models with National Longitudinal Survey of Youth data will examine how increases in city-region density and population over time influence wage inequality. Semi-structured interviews and mapping exercises with California city residents will seek to understand the mechanisms underlying these impacts. The research aims to contribute to understanding why more prosperous U.S. city-regions also tend to be more unequal by integrating spatial and labor market factors influencing inequality.
