Résumé
Seaports facilitate the fast flow of goods across space, but ports also entail local costs borne by host
cities. We use the introduction of containerized shipping to explore the effects of port development.
At the local level, we find that seaport development increases city population by making a city more
attractive, but this market access effect is offset by costs which make the city less attractive. At the
aggregate level, we find that the local costs associated with port development are heterogeneous
across cities and reduce aggregate welfare gains, which however are still positive and substantial.
