The heterogeneous impact of an 8.0 earthquake on housing quality : The case of Peruvian quake on 2007

We study the impact of the 2007 Pisco, Peru earthquake, the larger registered since 1970. We define treatment and control groups within concentric circles, and use a diff-in-diff estimator using highly detailed georeferenced microdata from both national household surveys (2005-2015) and three unusua...

We define treatment and control groups within concentric circles, and use a diff-in-diff estimator using highly detailed georeferenced microdata from both national household surveys (2005-2015) and three unusually close censuses, in 2005, 2007, and 2013.

Evaluamos el impacto del terremoto del 2007 en Pisco, Perú, el de mayor fuerza registrado desde 1970. Definimos a tratados y controles usando círculos concéntricos alrededor del epicentro y usamos el modelo de diff-in-diff usando datos de encuestas de hogares (2005-2015) y tres censos poblacionales que estuvieron inusualmente próximos (2005, 2007 y 2013). Nuestros resultados muestran que, en el corto plazo, los principales impactos destructivos se dieron en la calidad de las viviendas y en el bienestar subjetivo. Notablemente, encontramos que el impacto fue particularmente severo para las viviendas de peor material, y que la recuperación fue anti-pobre y desigualadora.
