Dr. van Rens's comment on this article[edit]

Dr. van Rens has reviewed this Wikipedia page, and provided us with the following comments to improve its quality:

There is a literature in labor economics on the effect of geographic mismatch on aggregate unemployment. A survey of this literature may be found here (although the paper focuses on skills mismatch): http://www.thijsvanrens.com/SU/SMF-CAGE-Policy-Briefing-Skills-Gap-081215.pdf
Some important recent references: Şahin, A., J. Song, G. Topa, and G. L. Violante (2014), ‘Mismatch unemployment’, American Economic Review, 104 (11): 3529-64 Herz, B. and T. van Rens (2015), ‘Accounting for Mismatch Unemployment’, IZA Discussion Paper 8884 Kaplan, G. and S. Schulhofer-Wohl (2011). A sharp drop in interstate migration? not really.

We hope Wikipedians on this talk page can take advantage of these comments and improve the quality of the article accordingly.
