DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:\n\nCostly Commuting and the Job Ladder\nAbstract:\nI study the interaction
  between commuting and employment in the data and within a spatial model of
  on-the-job search. I document the correlation between commuting time, job-
 to-job transitions, and earnings empirically. The theoretical model feature
 s a labor market in which individuals must commute in order to work, explic
 itly taking into account the distributions across space and employment stat
 es. Wages and rent are jointly determined endogenously, giving rise to sort
 ing across jobs and space. The rate of job-to-job transitions and wage gain
 s within and between jobs depend crucially on the spatial elements of the m
 odel.  The calibrated model quantifies the costs of commuting on individual
  wage profiles and aggregate labor market outcomes.  Counterfactual analysi
 s shows that declines in commuting costs accompanying the rise of working r
 emotely affect location choices and wage growth at the individual level, an
 d employment, rent, and output in the aggregate.\n
