Notes: Column 1 reports estimates of βc’s from estimation of equation (2) on the low-income neighborhood sample. Column 2 reports estimates of βc’s from estimation of equation (3) on the low-income neighborhood sample. Unit of observation is a synthetic cohort in a census tract. Cohort 1 consists of householders ages 20-29 in 1990, Cohort 2 of householders ages 30-39 in 1990, Cohort 3 of householders ages 40-49 in 1990, and Cohort 4 of householders ages 50-59 in 1990. Standard errors are clustered at the tract level.
