چکیده

"The role of location-specific amenities in human migration decisions, and subsequently regional development, is explored.

The approach hinges upon the notion that amenity values are capitalized into wages, rents, or other local prices. This process of capitalization enables researchers to explore the implicit value that society places upon amenities, which can then be used in assessing future regional-development trends in a more comprehensive manner."
