Heterogeneous Convergence

Young, Andrew
Higgins, Matthew
Levy, Daniel

Publication date

October 2006

Abstract

We use U.S. county-level data to estimate convergence rates for 22 individual states. We find significant heterogeneity. E.g., the California estimate is 19.9 percent and the New York estimate is 3.3 percent. Convergence rates are essentially uncorrelated with income levels
