  • HG 333: Regional and Urban Economics

    3.00 Credits
    Cazenovia College (Closed 2023)

    Regional and Urban Economics is the study of the location of economic activity. We consider why cities form and grow; changes in urban form; changes in transportation technology; and the conditions that facilitate economic development. Two distinct aspects about location that are of interest to us are the distance from other economic activity and the income of households in a place. Relying heavily on market concepts developed in introductory economics, we study location theory for firms relative to markets, and explore issues related to government efforts to encourage growth. Prerequisite: HG 132 Introductory Microeconomics or permission of instructor. (Offered on a rotating basis)

    3.00 Credits
    Cazenovia College (Closed 2023)

    The primary objective of this course is to provide the basis for evaluating both efficiency and equity of sub-federal taxation and spending.

For example, federal governments do not need to be concerned about tax competition, but local governments do; and development is an inherently local activity.
