An examination of the benefits and consequences to cities when companies relocate to the suburbs. Theoretic models of a manufacturing plant and a business services office in the Chicago area illustrate such phenomena as suburban wealth creation, increased traffic congestion and housing abandonment.

Joseph Persky is a professor of economics at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Wim Wiewel is dean and professor at the College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
