CITIES, WAGES, AND THE URBAN HIERARCHY
估计了城市等级体系中，因偏远性导致的工资损失与城市规模带来的生产率效应之间的补偿性工资溢价大小，发现城市等级越高工资越高，偏远城市工资损失可达35%。
ABSTRACT In this paper, we estimate the size of the wage premium necessary to compensate for remoteness incurred by workers compared to the city size productivity effects. We construct five urban hierarchy tiers for cities in Chile based on their level of remoteness from the urban system. We then contrast the effect generated by these variables on worker wages. We report a positive gradient of wages the higher the size of the urban tier and a loss in wages that can reach 35 percent for more remote cities.
