Project Description
Summary:
View help for Summary
We document that widespread migration into China's industrial clusters between 2000-2010 did little to change overall population exposure to pollution. Using satellite air pollution data, we show that there is much heterogeneity across zones and that most population growth occurred in relatively cleaner zones, supporting recent literature that documents local willingness to make location decisions based on environmental quality.
