Chapter 1. "Household Sorting with Heterogeneous Productivity Impacts of Flood Risk" examines household sorting over flood risk, incorporating heterogeneous impacts of flooding on productivity. Industries are categorized as either Opportunity Sectors or Suffering Sectors, based on whether their productivity is positively or negatively affected by flood risk. Estimation using a nested multispatial sorting model suggests substantial industry-based heterogeneity in the marginal willingness to pay (MWTP) for flood risk reduction, with MWTP markedly lower in Opportunity Sectors. Furthermore, to disentangle the heterogeneous sorting behaviors arising from sector and income channels, a horse-race analysis is conducted. With the novel productivity channel incorporated, the observed divergences across income levels are mostly explained by sectoral dynamics but no evidence of the reverse effect. These findings highlight climate-related productivity as a critical mechanism behind demographic disparities documented in the literature.Chapter 2. "High-Temperature and Mortgage Termination" is coauthored with Yongheng Deng, Teng Li, and Timothy Riddiough. We find that households exposed to high temperature default and prepay at higher rates, with households defaulting more when underwater and prepaying more when above-water on their loans. Areas with multiple climate risks show extreme sensitivity to high temperature. Air conditioning and better access to credit attenuate default responses but not prepayment responses, indicating that heat exacerbates financial stresses associated with negative housing equity. To address housing-mismatch, households that prepay move to cooler areas with less disaster risk. There is only weak evidence of labor market effects on termination responses to high temperatures.Chapter 3. "Estimating Benefits and Costs of Land Development" is coauthored with Lu Han, Christopher Timmins, and Vincent Yao. We estimate the benefits and costs associated with land development using a unified framework. By employing a shift-share instrument and its interaction with the indicator for areas with high flood risk exposure, we find that expected benefits significantly and positively impact home prices, while expected costs have a significant and negative effect. There is also a significant spillover effect on local home prices from nearby land development. Residents in Republican-leaning states value the expected benefits more and discount the costs. Underserved areas, with higher proportions of minorities and lower median incomes, receive lower net benefits compared to other areas, mainly due to lower benefits from nearby land development rather than higher costs.
