  abstract     = {{Using Swedish register data for 1993–2022, this paper documents robust spatial heterogeneity<br/>in the relationship between transfer generosity and local employment. Transfer reductions are<br/>associated with lower employment among individuals far from the labour market in immigrant-<br/>dense neighbourhoods, but with higher employment among individuals with stronger labour-<br/>market attachment. This pattern is difficult to explain with a purely labour-supply interpretation<br/>and is consistent with local-demand channels playing an important role in economically weaker<br/>neighbourhoods. An illustrative cost calculation suggests that the implied employment cost in<br/>the most immigrant-dense areas is of a plausible order of magnitude and comparable to<br/>estimates from the local fiscal multiplier literature.}},
