Who benefits from local job growth:  migrants or the original residents?
"This paper surveys research on whether the new jobs resulting from growth in a local economy (e.g. a metropolitan area) go to in-migrants or the original local residents.  The empirical evidence suggests that around one-quarter of the new jobs from local growth increases the labour force participation rates of local residents in the long-run. These long-run effects may occur because local growth provides residents with valuable employment experience.  Research also suggests that minorities benefit most from growth and that higher wage industries provide greater employment benefits for local residents."  The geographical focus is on developed countries, particularly the United States. (SUMMARY IN FRE AND GER)
