The Periurban Dynamic and Local Government Expenditure: A Causality Analysis
by Marie-Estelle Binet
This paper proposes new econometric methodology to test for tax competition between local authorities based on greater local government expenditure. A Granger analysis is made of the causality between the residential population level and the sum of public goods available in an area based on a sample of 25 French communes from 1960 to 1983. We show that the amount of local public goods in eight of the communes studied precedes and positively influences residential choices. Residential growth in these communes is hence partially explained by a tax competition strategy. Inverse causality is observed in seven other communes, which hence display adaptive behaviour.
