Given this controversy, this article examines the link between new business activity and inner city employment growth in Phoenix, Arizona. Analytical results highlight job creation from new business activity but a net negative association between new business activity and employment growth stemming from the loss of jobs from large employers in inner city neighborhoods. This relationship highlights that encouraging new business activity is not necessarily a bad idea for local residents and customers, but should not be viewed as a panacea for all inner city problems. Instead, new business activity should be viewed as one component of multifaceted initiatives to revitalize inner city neighborhoods. - Reproduced.  aEconomic development97717  aCredit, Kevin97718  aUrban Affairs Review  aEmployment   2ddccAR  00102ddc40709384129aIIPAbIIPAd2019-08-02h55(2), Mar, 2019: p.530-557.pAR120143r2019-08-02yAR
