Urban Economics 8
The city of Medianville has 100 citizens with income ranging from $20,000 to $70,000. The average income is $50,000 and the median income is $60,000. An individuals demand for open space depends only on income, and the indi- vidual demand curve (marginal benefit curve) has a vertical intercept equal
