Proximité aux infrastructures et croissance de l'emploi en Île-de-France (1993-2008): Le rôle des transports à l'échelle intramétropolitaine
Abstract
This article aims to analyze the role of proximity to transport infrastructures in employment growth within 291 municipalities located in the Île-de-France region between 1993 and 2008. Based on the employment data from Unistatis, a multiple regression econometric model is estimated, first without variables describing proximity to infrastructure, and then integrating them in order to measure the gain in explanatory power. The results suggest that the role of infrastructure in employment growth rate is limited and varies according to economic sectors and network types. © 2012 INRETS et Springer-Verlag France.
