First, this paper empirically evaluates the incidence of the Japanese place-based job creation program, which has rarely been studied in Japan. The program increases employment, especially in the agricultural, retail trade, and service sectors, which most treated municipalities promote. Second, this paper explores the municipalities that the program affects most. Those with large aging populations and those with small working age populations decrease the effects of the program. Third, this paper assesses the externality effect of this program and does not observe a strong reduction in sales, workers, or establishments in the neighboring municipalities of a treated municipality.

评估日本的地方就业创造计划

首先，本文从经验上评估了日本很少进行的基于场所的就业创造计划的发生率。该计划增加了就业，特别是在农业，零售贸易和服务部门，大多数受到关注的市政府都促进了就业。其次，本文探讨了该计划影响最大的城市。人口老龄化的人群和劳动年龄较小的人群降低了该计划的效果。第三，本文评估了该计划的外部性影响，并未观察到经过处理的城市的邻近城市的销售，工人或机构的大幅减少。
