Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-1610-5451 Modelling the location of self-employed workers in urban areas 2022 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted In this article, we develop an urban model for self-employment where leisure and effort at work are complementary. Our model shows that unemployment tends to be concentrated far from business districts, in contrast to employment and self-employment. The self-employed tend to live closer to workplaces than do the employed, as commuting affects productivity and thus earnings. We use the American Time Use Survey to test the model and find that employment and self-employment are negatively related to commuting, in comparison to unemployment, while self-employment is associated with shorter commutes, giving support to the theoretical background. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/FSE info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S32-17R info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/es/ 1.6 2022 ECONOMICS 236 / 380 = 0.621 2022 Q3 T2 0.45 2022 Economics and Econometrics 2022 Q2 2.5 2022 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion Velilla, J.
