About Journal
The Journal of Regional
Science (JRS) publishes original analytical research at the
intersection of economics and quantitative geography. Since 1958, the JRS has published leading
contributions to urban and regional thought.
This includes rigorous methodological contributions and seminal
theoretical pieces. The JRS is one of
the most highly cited journals in urban and regional research, planning,
geography, and the environment. The JRS
continues to publish work that advances our understanding of the geographic
dimensions of urban and regional economies, human settlements, and policies
related to cities and regions.
