Notes: The data come from job vacancies posted online, 2010–2016. The unit of observation is a year–CZ combination. The sample contains a total of 5,082 observations from 726 CZs. Each cell is the effect of Medicaid eligibility from separate regressions of Equation 1. All regressions include year fixed effects, CZ fixed effects, and the annual CZ-level covariates described in the text. Regressions are weighted by population. Standard errors are clustered at the CZ level and are shown in parentheses below the estimates.
