If Cities are So Great, Why are People Leaving? A Comment

Peter Schaeffer

Environment and Planning A, 1979, vol. 11, issue 11, 1321-1322

Abstract: Tregarthen (1977) claims that an increase in agglomeration economies may be the cause of migration to smaller cities. In this comment I show that his analysis does not lead to this conclusion.
