Description

Abstract In the following paper the impact on the number of firms is estimated for the California Enterprise Zone Program from 1987 to 1991, the years of operation for the first series of enterprise zones in the state. Data for the estimates for the change in the number of firms derived from the County Business Pattern data of the U.S. Census Bureau. The relative change in the number of firms is estimated using a Two-Way Fixed Effects Model. The results indicate that some types of firms in terms of their size as measured by their number of employees and industry type may indeed have produced some positive employment effects for those enterprise zones considered in the study. Caution should be taken however in placing too much weight on the results of the study given the number of theoretical and empirical issues that can create doubt with respect to the efficacy of enterprise zone programs in their ability to provide net changes in social welfare for economic distressed areas.
