The canonical Alonso-Muth-Mills spatial equilibrium model predicts that relaxing land use regulations will result in more housing close to the city center.
“The canonical Alonso-Muth-Mills (AMM) spatial equilibrium model of the monocentric city predicts that a relaxation of Land Use Regulations (LURs) will result in more housing close to the city to the center (Bertaud and Brueckner, 2005).”

Economic theories of urban development predict that upzoning will encourage construction in desirable locations where zoning regulation was previously binding, such as areas close to job locations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
