Location is Key: How Micro-Spatial Resources Boost Women's Self-Employment Earnings
Self-employment is a common way for people to make money, but women often earn less than men. A new study found that where a woman's business is located can make a big difference in how much money she makes. In a Colombian housing complex, women who run businesses from good locations earn over twice as much as others, helping them escape poverty. This shows that where you set up your business can have a big impact on how successful it is, especially for women.
