Abstract

An amended version of the Aronson-Schwartz model and a more detailed econometric model are used to test the proposition that population movements within the London metropolitan area are related to the 'value-for-money' provided by local authorities. Both approaches reveal evidence of a significant relationship, which has a variety of implications for policy towards local government finance.
