In this paper, we examine the impact of the coal boom in the 1970 s and the subsequent coal bust in the 1980s on local labour markets in Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. We address two main questions in our analysis. How were non - mining sectors affected by the shocks to the mining sector ? How did these effects differ between sectors producing local goods and those producing traded goods ? We find evidence of modest employment spillovers into sectors with locally traded goods but not into sectors with nationally traded goods.
