This course is a survey of modern urban economics. We shall examine
the microeconomics of the structure of cities and housing markets; economic
theories addressing how, why and where cities form; the history and dynamics
of the urban economy; and the role of government policy in correcting for market
failures in the urban economy. We use urban economics as a vehicle for learning
how to think like economists.
