I am a microeconomist who spends his days searching for better models, but I mostly use Twitter for one-liners.

    Over at work I've been doing some for tax analysis, using 1.7 billion observations, and got some useful results about outcomes from domestic U.S. . The paper is at . Some interesting results: [1/11—there are many]

    A request to journalists: next time you report news of the form "corporation makes multi-million dollar charitable contribution", please also print the payment as a percent of the firm's annual revenue.

    Thanks for your votes on this incredibly niche poll. I've updated my prior of all-frequentist conference=1 using the poll results (∀fc=.33, N=3).

    Hey, , it's been two big days of great research. Have you seen Bayesian statistical analyses, be it on regression parameters or any other structure of model? Poll:

    Found a methods session here @ and it's a majority minority room. Now I'm wondering about the relationship between this minority white turnout to the methods panel, the American Economic Association's documented diversity problem, and Econ's methodological monoculture.

    Not seeing many methodological panels at . I get the sense that Economics has decided diff-in-diff regressions are the One True Method and we're done thinking about alternatives.

    One of the best things about working for myself, and not drinking, has been the ability to travel broadly and fully experience places in a way I never could when I was drunk, broke, and wedded to a schedule. I've started a new blog about sober travel.

    The nomenclature of Manhattan was written by people who never went more than halfway up the island. It's like Harlem and another hundred blocks further North don't exist.

    Once you go past finding a higher-paying job, the are a million possible stories for single mothers, elderly movers, and others who don't fit the archetype of the mover. I look forward to seeing where the literature goes next in exploring them.

    In our search for non-school-leavers who see relative income gains, we're down to under 45s making under 100k/year. Movers in that subgroup see good results—except for single parents, who see roughly break-even median income changes. They are 8% of moves.

    Relative gains decline with income, with movers making over 100k/year seeing a median post-move income change that's break-even or worse. This could be a simple reversion to the mean story, given movers seeing more volatile income changes than stayers.

    Retiree movers (again, controlling for AGI, household composition, &c) see noticeably worse post-move incomes relative to stayers. Relative gains decline with age: 25-35 year old movers do well, but past about 45 relative gains (excluding retirees) noticeably fall.

    People who move at the same time as leaving school do great relative to stayers. People in communities where post-school moves are common sometimes assume this is the norm for every mover, but it's 6.7% of moves. Other populations don't see nearly the same income gains.
