中文摘要
本文通过将社区效应纳入一个具有内生区位选择和儿童发展的世代交叠一般均衡模型，研究住房券和城市再开发项目。我们使用美国数据校准模型，并估计大规模实施租房券和基于地域的补贴政策的影响。我们的核心发现是：住房券通过减少不平等以及产生技能提升（这些技能提升抵消了更高的税收和其他一般均衡效应）带来长期福利收益。尽管住房券平均而言带来更大的福利收益，但我们发现，在住房供给受限的城市中，基于地域的补贴可能更为可取。（JEL D63、H24、J13、J24、R23、R31、R38）
Abstract
This paper studies housing vouchers and urban redevelopment programs by incorporating neighborhood effects into a general equilibrium overlapping-generations model with endogenous location choice and child development. We calibrate the model using US data and estimate impacts of large-scale implementations of rental voucher and place-based subsidy policies. Our core finding is that vouchers generate long-run welfare gains by reducing inequality and generating skill improvements that offset higher taxation and other GE effects. Although vouchers lead to larger welfare gains on average, we find that place-based subsidies may be preferable in cities with constrained housing supply. (JEL D63, H24, J13, J24, R23, R31, R38)
