We investigate the competitiveness of inner cities in terms of employment between 2002 and 2011 and find that inner cities are gaining jobs.

We investigate the impact that flooding from a major US hurricane had on household finance.

This paper estimates the effect that the closure and demolition of roughly 20,000 units of geographically concentrated high-rise public housing had on crime in Chicago.

I decompose the effects of foreclosures on nearby home prices into two components, one due to additional available housing supply and one due to disamenity stemming from deferred maintenance or vacancy.

We investigate the impact that flooding from a major US hurricane had on household finance.

We present a model which links house-price movements across neighborhoods within a city and the gentrification of those neighborhoods in response to a citywide housing-demand shock.

This paper explores the degree to which gentrification impacts local labor markets.

In this paper we contrast the spatial patterns of population density and other demographic changes in growing versus shrinking MSAs from 1980 to 2010.

When a city experiences a decline in income or population, all neighborhoods within the city do not decline equally.

Critics have argued that the demolishing public housing developments displaces crime to other parts of the city. We study of the effects of Chicago’s program to demolish its public housing developments and find otherwise.

Four years into the economic recovery, housing markets have finally started to improve.

Many Rust-Belt cities have seen almost half their populations move from inside the city borders to the surrounding suburbs and elsewhere since the 1970s.

In recent decades, some cities have seen their urban centers lose population density, as residents spread farther out to suburbs and exurbs. Others have kept populous downtowns even as their environs have grown.

A record number of mortgage loans are either in default or in danger of being defaulted upon. Many of the properties that back these loans will end up going through the foreclosure process.

This publication is a compilation of research published by the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland on housing markets that are experiencing foreclosure and/or a large number of vacant properties, including a policy white paper released May 2013...

The Cleveland Fed and regional businesspeople compare last year to the year before and answer our question: What’s in store for 2015?

Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland economists examine the many forces that will determine how “great” the most recent recession turns out to be. Find the articles, plus our interview with economic historian Price Fishback, in the fall 2011 issue of Forefront.
