The complexity inherent to urban economics has long limited its study to graduate students, but this course-in-a-book brings the discipline's main ideas into reach for undergraduates for the first time. A Field Guide to Urban Economics adopts an intuitive, example-driven style and provides clear explanations of fundamental urban economic models along with carefully selected modern topics not found in existing texts. Based on years of classroom experience, this engaging and up-to-date book offers theoretical rigor, an empirical perspective, and policy applications in an approachable introduction to the field.

  • Explains the basic facts and patterns behind the organization of cities
  • Covers quantitative spatial models and other recent developments
  • Motivates ideas with reference to real world phenomena
  • Offers clear mathematical explanations without being overly technical
