Amenity clusters consisting of coffee shops, restaurants and other small businesses improve urban life and are a source of employment for city dwellers. Although most small business clusters were hit hard by restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some were able to adapt. What determines the economic resilience of amenity clusters? Using store-location data for Seoul from 2016 to 2021, we identify spatial clusters of amenities, and from that build an amenity space to examine the effect of relatedness on the resilience of each cluster. We find that businesses are more likely to survive when located in clusters of related amenities.

城市的经济弹性：COVID-19 大流行期间相关性对便利店生存的影响

由咖啡店、餐馆和其他小企业组成的便利设施集群改善了城市生活，是城市居民的就业来源。尽管大多数小型企业集群都受到 COVID-19 大流行期间施加的限制的沉重打击，但有些企业能够适应。是什么决定了便利设施集群的经济弹性？使用 2016 年至 2021 年首尔的商店位置数据，我们确定了便利设施的空间集群，并从中构建了一个便利空间，以检查相关性对每个集群的弹性的影响。我们发现，企业位于相关设施集群中时更有可能生存。
