Abstract:

This research examines the impact of accessibility on the growth of employment centers in the

Los Angeles Region between 1980 and 2000. There is extensive empirical documentation of

polycentricity – the presence of multiple concentrations of employment – in large metropolitan

areas. However, there is limited understanding of the determinants of growth of employment

centers. It has long been held that transportation investments influence urban structure,

particularly freeways and airports. Using data on 48 employment centers, we test the effects of

various measures of accessibility on center employment growth: network accessibility and two

measures of labor force accessibility. We also test the relevance of access to airports. We find

that after controlling for center size, density, industry mix, and location within the region, only

labor force accessibility is significantly related to center growth.
