Exploring the Detailed Location Patterns of UK Manufacturing Industries using Microgeographic Data

Gilles Duranton and Henry Overman

Working Papers from University of Toronto, Department of Economics

Abstract: Using a point-patternmethodology, we explore a range of issues regarding the detailed location patterns of UKmanufacturing industries. In particular, we focus on the location of entrants and exiters vs. continuing establishments, domestic- vs. foreign-owned, large vs. small, and affiliated vs. independent. We also examine co-localisation between vertically-linked industries. Our analysis provides a set of new stylised facts and confirmation for others.
