  • updated version in STATA as required by Prof Romer, project files
  1. Job gradients (US only) - spatial distribution around CBSA centers
  • initial data download, merge, and distance/bearing calculations in this jupyter notebook - average geographic center using all Census Blocks did not estimate city center well in this version
