reau of Economic Analysis (Table CA30 and Table CA05). The number of
establishments at the 2-digit SIC level was obtained from the U.S. Bureau
of Census, County Business Patterns. The source for per capita property
tax is also the U.S. Bureau of Census, Census of Government. Land area is

19The inclusion of time-sectorial dummies in the Poisson model imposes
the restriction that,
J
nkt = exp(αkt + θ0yjt + β0zjkt),
j=1
where nkt is the total number of investments in sector k at time t. Given
that njkt = pjkt.nkt we may compute the marginal effects in terms of their
impact on njkt or pjkt . Our explanatory variables are all in logarithmic
form what means that the estimated coefficients can be directly interpreted
as elasticities if we measure the impact on njkt. To obtain the elasticities in
terms of pjkt one should multiply the estimated coefficients by (1 - pjkt).
