+abstract: 'Federal and state governments spend well over a billion dollars a year
+
+  on programs that encourage employment development in disadvantaged labor
+
+  markets through the use of subsidies and tax credits. In this paper we
+
+  use an estimation approach that is valid under relatively weak
+
+  assumptions to measure the impact of State Enterprise Zones (ENTZs),
+
+  Federal Empowerment Zones (EMPZs), and Federal Enterprise Community
+
+  (ENTC) programs on local labor markets. We find that all three programs
+
+  have positive, statistically significant, impacts on local labor markets
+
+  in terms of the unemployment rate, the poverty rate, the fraction with
+
+  wage and salary income, and employment. Further, the effects of EMPZ and
+
+  ENTC designation are considerably larger than the impact of ENTZ
+
+  designation. We find that our estimates are robust to allowing for a
+
+  regression to the mean effect. We also find that there are positive, but
+
+  statistically insignificant, spillover effects to neighboring Census
+
+  tracts of each of these programs. Thus our positive estimates of these
+
+  program impacts do not simply represent a transfer from the nearest
+
+  non-treated Census tract to the treated Census tract. Our results are
+
+  noteworthy for several reasons. First, our study is the first to jointly
+
+  look at these three programs, thus allowing policy makers to compare the
+
+  impacts of these programs. Second, our paper, along with a concurrent
+
+  study by Neumark and Kolko (2008), is the first to carry out the
+
+  estimation accounting for overlap between the programs. Third, our
+
+  estimation strategy is valid under weaker assumptions than those made in
+
+  many previous studies; we consider three comparison groups and let the
+
+  data determine the appropriate group. Fourth, in spite of our
+
+  conservative estimation strategy, by looking at national effects with
+
+  disaggregated data, we show that ENTZ designation generally has a
+
+  positive effect on the local labor market, while most previous research
+
+  on ENTZs, much of which used more geographically aggregated data to look
+
+  at state-specific effects, did not find any significant impacts. Fifth,
+
+  we note that there is little or no previous work on ENTCs. Overall, our
+
+  results strongly support the efficacy of these labor market
+
+  interventions. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.'
