An Overview of Urban Enterprise Zones

Number of Pages 19

This 19 page paper provides an overview of urban enterprise zones, and uses empirical evidence from several zones to evaluate their success or failure. The writer argues that although these zones often provide new jobs, too few of the jobs are filled by residents of the zones. The writer argues that one way to solve the problem is to require businesses that want to benefit from the tax and regulatory incentives that accrue to them for operating in the zone, is to require them to hire specific target groups. There are 10 sources listed in the bibliography.
