PUBLIC CAPITAL FORMATION AND THE GROWTH OF REGIONAL MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES
Abstract
Our purpose in this paper is to provide new estimates of the link between public infrastructure and economic performance by extending and updating our earlier work on regional manufacturing productivity. Our findings suggest that this link is weak. Productivity actually grew slightly faster in the older, declining regions of the country during the period 1951-1986. In contrast, the public capital stock grew substantially faster in the Sun Belt. 1978-1986 is of particular interest; the public capital stock grew much more quickly and productivity grew much more slowly in the Sun Belt as compared to the Snow Belt during that period.

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.
