Urban Economics & Real Urban Economics & Real Estate Market AnalysisEstate Market Analysis
Financial Economics Knowledge about the R.E. Asset Market.
Urban Economics Knowledge about the R.E. Space Market (Fundamental source of value).
5% of U.S. land is in urban areas, but 90% of real estate value is in urban areas.
Real estate is an urban phenomenonTo understand real estate, you need to
understand cities.

Urban Economics & Urban Economics & Geography:Geography:
Why/how do some cities grow faster than others?… What determines locations of different types of
activities?… What determines location value (& land value)?… How does location value change over time in
different parts of a city?… How can we analyze the market for different types of
space usage in different types of locations?…

Central Place Theory and Central Place Theory and the System of Citiesthe System of Cities
The “Big Picture” of cities…– Why cities form, grow, & decline– What are the centralizing & decentralizing forces that
explain the number and sizes of cities– What is a "system" of cities, and the essential
characteristics of the US system of cities– The key practical insights and principles of central place
theory and urban hierarchy theory, and how real estate decision makers can use these
– What is meant by the economic base and export base of a city
– Employment & population multipliers

3.1 The Pattern of City Size3.1 The Pattern of City SizeCities are not isolated phenomena.Each city is part of a “system” of cities.Each city has a place and role as an element
in this system.
Example:Example:A high-rise, upscale apartment building can make lots of money in New York City.The same building would probably lose lots of money in Des Moines, IA.

What causes the rank/size rule?…What causes the rank/size rule?…
In part, it’s pure Mathematics… Suppose all cities grow at random rates over time. Suppose all cities tend to grow at the same average rate. Suppose all cities have the same “volatility” in their growth rates. Then the “Zipf’s Law” rank/size pattern will result.
![Page 14: Part II: Urban Economics & Real Estate Market Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e795503460f94b79792/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
But why would all cities tend to grow at But why would all cities tend to grow at the same average rate?…the same average rate?…
The number of new jobs is proportional to the number of existing jobs.
![Page 15: Part II: Urban Economics & Real Estate Market Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e795503460f94b79792/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Why would all cities have the same Why would all cities have the same volatility of growth?volatility of growth?
Once a certain size, cities tend to have diversified economic bases.
Smaller towns do not have diversified economies, so they experience more volatility, causing many to “die out”.
So there are fewer small towns than Zipf’s Law would predict.

What this math cannot explain:What this math cannot explain:
Why do cities change rank so rarely?… Rank changes tend to be systematic, not
random (e.g., southern & western cities tend to move up in rank, eastern cities move down. To understand the size pattern of cities, we must also consider location . . .

1) Economies of Scale1) Economies of Scale
– Cheaper per unit to produce more stuff at one place.
– i.e., Declining average costs with larger production capacity.
– Due to “fixed” costs.– Example: Auto factory with 200,000 cars/yr
production capacity is more efficient than auto factory with 50,000 cars/yr capacity.

Two practical principles of CPT:Two practical principles of CPT:
1) If there is an under-served
territory there is room for a new "central site"; and
2) If there is already a central site
effectively located to serve a territory, it is going to be very hard to develop a new such site nearby the existing site.

Identify which cities or regions will grow.
Help characterize what kind of growth (e.g.: "blue collar" vs "white collar").
Help quantify how much growth.

Three major components of the Economic Base:Three major components of the Economic Base:
1. Local production of goods and services both for local needs and for "export" beyond the local urban area;
2. Investment returns to or of capital owned in the local area, such as investment returns on the stored financial wealth of retirees;
3. Government transfers such as social security payments.
(1) (local production) is most important in most urban areas.

3.4.2 The “3.4.2 The “ExportExport” Base…” Base…
In any city or region two types of goods and services are produced by the local economy:
![Page 36: Part II: Urban Economics & Real Estate Market Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e795503460f94b79792/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Export GoodsExport Goods
Export goods and services are those produced in greater quantities than needed for local consumption. These goods and services are exported to other cities, regions, and countries. These are referred to as “basic” products (or basic production). The sector of the local economy that produces such goods and services is called the “basic” (or “export”) sector.
![Page 37: Part II: Urban Economics & Real Estate Market Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e795503460f94b79792/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Local GoodsLocal Goods
Local goods and services are those produced in quantities equal to or less than what is needed for local consumption. These are referred to as “non-basic” goods and services (or non-basic production). The sector of the local economy that produces such goods and services is called the “non-basic” (or “service”) sector. (This sector serves the local population and the export sector.)
![Page 38: Part II: Urban Economics & Real Estate Market Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e795503460f94b79792/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Export Base TheoryExport Base Theory::
According to “Export Base Theory”: Economic growth of the city or region is dependent entirely on growth in the export ("basic") sector of the local economy. Because the non-export (service) sector exists only to serve (directly or indirectly) the export sector.
![Page 39: Part II: Urban Economics & Real Estate Market Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e795503460f94b79792/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Example:Example:Suppose Fidelity Investments adds 500 employees to their
N.Ky facility. Where do those 500 employees come from?…
Some from out of town (growth), others from the local area.
The employees that come from the local area would have to leave their previous existing jobs in the local area. They will have to be replaced in those jobs. Where will those replacements come from?…
Some from out of town (growth), others from the local area.
Etc., etc., … Eventually all 500 Fidelity jobs are a net addition to the local area total employment.
This is because Fidelity is part of the Cincinnati MSA’s economy’s “export base”.
![Page 40: Part II: Urban Economics & Real Estate Market Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e795503460f94b79792/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Example:Example:
Kroger’s builds a new supermarket on Beechmont Ave, which requires 100 employees to operate. Where do those 100 employees come from?…
Most from the local area, some from out of town.
The ones that came from out of town prevent other local Cincinnati residents from getting those new jobs at Krogers, because the new Kroger jobs do not add to the total jobs in the Cincinnati MSA, because it does not increase Cincinnati’s exports to other regions. The new Kroger’s does not cause Cincinnati residents to eat more food than they otherwise would without the new Krogers.

According to export base According to export base theory, theory,
2-step process to forecast metro growth: 1) Identify which are the export
base industries in the local region;
2) Forecast employment growth in those industries.

Step 1:
Identify which industries are in a given region’s export base (i.e., “characterize” the economic base of the metro area).
How can we do this? . . .

The “Location Quotient”(LQ)The “Location Quotient”(LQ)
LQ = 1.0 → same proportion of local workers work in a particular industry as work in that industry in the nation as a whole.
LQ > 1.0 → local area is more heavily concentrated in that industry than is the average city or region across the country.
In practice, it is usually considered that a location quotient must be significantly greater than 1.0 in order to indicate that the industry is part of the export sector of the local economic base.

The Service Sector and the Export MultiplierThe Service Sector and the Export Multiplier
These jobs depend ultimately, directly or indirectly, on the export base of the region.
LQ 1.0 for non-basic occupations in most cities.
The non-basic sector is also known as the "service sector" of the region.
If the export sector declined there would be less need for the service sector.
Since the service sector is dependent on the export sector, the change in the demand for service sector jobs is a function of the change in the number of export sector jobs.
![Page 53: Part II: Urban Economics & Real Estate Market Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e795503460f94b79792/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
The number of jobs in the service sector generally greatly exceeds the number of jobs directly in the export sector. Therefore: Expansion in the export sector creates an "employment multiplier effect" on total local employment.

Example:Example:
Toyota USA sets up national headquarters office in Cincinnati MSA (N.Ky), with 300 headquarters employees…

Example (cont’d):Example (cont’d):
1. Including families, this brings, say, 600 people to Cincinnati MSA.
2. These 600 people spend much of their pay checks on local goods and services (housing, utilities, food, entertainment, schooling, etc.)
3. This expands the demand side of the local economy, adding jobs in the service sector.
![Page 56: Part II: Urban Economics & Real Estate Market Analysis.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649e795503460f94b79792/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Example (cont’d):Example (cont’d):4. Such net expansion of service sector jobs in the
Cincinnati MSA must be filled (directly or indirectly) either by people previously unemployed in Cincinnati, or by new migrants moving to Cincinnati.
5. This net expansion of the service sector in turn adds to the total demand side of the Cincinnati MSA local economy, requiring further additional workers, and so forth…
6. By the time this expansion ripple-effect runs its course, the original 300 jobs added to the export base of the MSA may result in 700-800 total new jobs (in both the export base and service sector), and perhaps a growth of 1500 in the MSA population. → An “employment multiplier” of 2.5; a “population multiplier” of 5.0.

Employment multipliers are typically in the range of 2.0 to 4.0.
Population multipliers are typically in the range of 2.5 to 9.0.
Note: Multiplier effects go both ways: Loss of local export base jobs has a multiplier effect on the overall local economy & population.
Note: Multiplier effects result only from changes in export base employment (rippling through the local service sector).

Note also:Note also:
Economic bases of cities evolve over time (sometimes rapidly) Relations between economic sectors change over time (e.g., oil may be cyclical or counter-cyclical).This makes it difficult to forecast correlations between cities regarding their economic growth rates. On the other hand: Centrality of location Availability of developable land Business climateTend to be more stable over time, facilitating general trend forecasting.
