This study aims to test this hypothesis in the context of the Philippines, where a trend of unbalanced regional development is becoming more and more apparent. The results reveal that access to firms has a positive significant effect on employment levels even when controlling for other location and working-age population characteristics. Moreover, the results also show that high-employment and high-access communities are significantly clustered in Manila, to the disadvantage of its neighboring provinces. These findings suggest that access to potential employers is a significant contributor to a region’s employment levels and that initiatives aimed at solving the unemployment problem should give more focus on job creation near underserved workers’ locations. | 參考文獻: | Anselin, L.
