School quality and housing prices: Empirical evidence from a natural experiment in Shanghai, China (2013, background): “design (BDD) that compares neighboring administrative districts with different education resources (Black, 1999; Gibbons and Machin, 2003; Bayer and McMillan, 2005; Kane, Staiger, and Reigg, 2005; Gibbons, Machin, and Silva, 2009).”
Smart Cafe Cities: Testing human capital externalities in the Boston metropolitan area (2007, methodology): “The better alternative may be to use non-parametric or semi-parametric estimates, or spatial econometric methods by using spatial weights (Gibbson and Machin, 2003; Anselin, 1988).”
Educational inequality: the widening socio-economic gap (2005, background): “Having better primary schools in an area raises house prices; thus wealthier parents can ‘buy’ better st ate-provided schooling ( Gibbons and Machin, 2003 and 2004 ).”
Assessing the effects of local taxation using microgeographic data (2011, neutral): “The two exceptions are Gibbons and Machin (2003) who consider endogeneity and Kahn (2004) who uses some longitudinal information.”
Valuing School Quality Using Boundary Discontinuities. CEE DP 132. (2013, methodology): “In conclusion, it is worth noting that previous research (Kane et al., 2003 and Gibbons and Machin, 2003) has suggested that single-year test score could be noisy proxies for the long-run performance indicators in which parents are likely to be interested.”
Buyer Information and the Hedonic: The Impact of a Seller Disclosure on the Implicit Price for Airport Noise (2008, positive): “Applied to the housing market, the model has been widely used in urban economics to study such topics as the value of air quality (i.e. Nelson [12] and Chay and Greenstone [4]), crime (i.e. Thaler [17] and Bowes and Ihlanfeldt [2]), and school quality (i.e. Black [1] and Gibbons and Machin [7]).1 Ho”
When Do Better Schools Raise Housing Prices? Evidence from Paris Public and Private Schools. CEE DP 119. (2010, methodology): “On UK data and using an alternative estimation strategy to correct for spatial fixed effects 2 , Gibbons and Machin (2003, ent schools.”
Valuing rail access using transport innovations (2004, background): “For a one-quarter-standard deviation increase in local primary school performance – a popular consideration in the literature on neighbourhood amenities and house prices in the both the U.S. (e.g. Black, 1999) and Britain (Gibbons and Machin, 2003) – the corresponding price increase is under 0.75%.”
Valuing School Quality, Better Transport, and Lower Crime: Evidence from House Prices (2008, background): “For example, we show (Gibbons and Machin, 2003) that payment for state schools via the housing market does not exceed private school”
Nonlinearities in Intergenerational Earnings Mobility: Consequences for Cross-Country Comparisons (2007, background): “In contrast, for example, in the UK there is a long tradition of private schooling and also a growing body of evidence on the effects of state school quality on local house prices (Gibbons and Machin, 2003), indicating substantial parental investments in offspring’s human capital.”
Beyond implicit prices: recovering theoretically consistent and transferable values for noise avoidance from a hedonic property price model (2007, methodology): “In particular, we combine the partial linear specification of Anglin and Gencay (1996) with the smooth spatial effects estimator of Gibbons and Machin (2003) .”
