What is Economics Agglomeration?

Home / Glossary / Economics Agglomeration

Economies of agglomeration or agglomeration effects are cost savings arising from urban agglomeration. The term economies of agglomeration is used in urban economics to describe the benefits that firms obtain by locating near each other (‘agglomerating’).

This concept relates to the idea of economies of scale and network effects. In simple words, as more firms in related fields of business cluster together, their costs of production may decline significantly
