The Zoom city: working from home, urban productivity and land use
研究了居家办公对单中心城市结构的影响，发现长期内仅在大城市提升生产力，商业地租下降，住宅地租在商业区附近下降，且工人倾向于采用效率过高的居家办公方案。
Abstract This article investigates the impact of working from home (WFH) on the emergence and structure of monocentric cities. In the long run, WFH raises urban productivity only in sufficiently large cities. Business land rents fall while residential land rents decrease near the business district. Workers have incentives to adopt inefficiently high WFH schemes. In the short run, WFH yields mixed benefits for commuters and firms, which corroborates the low WFH adoption before the pandemic. Advances in digital technology increase the welfare benefits of WFH. Calibration exercises on European capital cities shed light on the quantitative impact of WFH.
