Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Many social scientists presume that the quality of the neigborhood to which children are exposed affects a variety of long-run social outcomes. I examine the effect on the long-run labor market outcomes of adults who were assigned, when young, to substantially different public housing projects in Toronto. Administrative data are matched to public housing addresses to track children from the program for over 15 years. The main finding is that neighborhood quality plays little role in determining a youth's adult earnings, education attainment, or welfare participation, but does affect exposure to crime. While living in contrasting housing projects cannot explain large variances in labor market outcomes, family differences, as measured by sibling outcome correlations, account for up to 30 percent of the total variance in the data.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
