Much talk about rent and housing problems this morning. We published a great short survey on rent controls, which should inform policy and research priorities.

Older people seem to benefit from medical marijuana legalisation through reduced mental distress, while recreational marijuana legalisation leads to increased mental distress for younger people, US evidence @voxeu cepr.org/voxeu/columns/marij…
Great to see our research on marijuana legalisation and mental health featured in a @voxeu column this week👇
There is no evidence of an overall effect on #MentalHealth of #Marijuana legalisation in US states. However, effects differ across age groups and by pre-existing health conditions

With today's SG announcement of a rent freeze for Scotland until March 2023, it feels like a good time to repost my article on rent controls - economicsobservatory.com/doe…
A thread 🧵on the key takeaways 👇1/7
For this reason, rent controls should be accompanied by policies that mitigate effects on landlords, so that they continue to invest in rental housing (instead of selling/converting properties). Building new homes also helps, but not in the case of a short-term freeze. 6/7
New paper🚨 My research on the labour market effects of housing subsidy cuts is now published in the Journal of Housing Economics.

It is tempting to think rent controls make housing more affordable. It does, but for fewer people, and with lower quality dwellings, and many more undesired side-effects, unless they’re accompanied by other measures, writes @bodanieli: buff.ly/3mWCzrR via @EconObservatory

A summary of my research on transaction tax in Scotland was just published by @UrbanBigData
Many thanks to @UrbanBigData for helping me access the data for my research. UBDC is a great source for high-quality admin data on urban areas.
