ABSTRACT

We develop a model of wage and rent determination that features spillovers from export-sector shocks to the market for locally produced (nontraded) goods and services, mediated by housing supply elasticities. Our model can explain stylized facts such as “gentrification” in major cities driven by shocks to industries in which those cities specialize.
