Abstract

Growth rate differentials between local governments are used to reveal preferences over local-spending policies when fiscal tastes vary according to income and housing tenure and are constrained by local budgets and housing markets. Conditions are derived which indicate whether or not a locally financed fiscal expansion is desirable according to a generalized utilitarian social welfare function. The setting for the empirical work is Sydney, Australia.
