Abstract

El objetivo del trabajo es contrastar econométricamente si las diferencias autonómicas en los impuestos personales (IRPF, Impuesto sobre el Patrimonio e Impuesto sobre Sucesiones y Donaciones) han podido tener alguna influencia en la elección de la comunidad de residencia de los contribuyentes más ricos. Las estimaciones se realizan con la base de datos proporcionada por el Panel de Declarantes del IRPF suministrada por el Ministerio de Hacienda y Función Pública. El trabajo concluye, en primer lugar, que las diferencias en los impuestos autonómicos influyen significativamente en la elección de la comunidad de residencia por los contribuyentes ubicados en la parte más alta de la distribución de la renta y que la movilidad ocasionada por las diferencias en el IRPF parece dirigirse solo a la región de Madrid. En segundo lugar, que algunas variables sociodemográficas o relacionadas con las oportunidades que las comunidades ofrecen a los individuos también son relevantes para explicar las decisiones de localización. Y finalmente, que las diferencias en el gasto público en los servicios fundamentales no influyen sobre la elección de la comunidad de residencia.
