Abstract: | A conceptual model of the determinants of exit across spatial areas is presented and empirically tested. The relative merits of two different methods of calculating exit rates are discussed, and results compared. In the empirical estimation, entry is found to be the dominant determinant of exit. However, other factors also have a systematic effect: among these are local income, the rate of change of unemployment, relevant managerial skills, and population density. Making allowance for variations in industrial structure across areas has some effect on the results, but does not eliminate the effect of variables other than entry. |
