  1. Note: Standard errors clustered at the city level are in parentheses in columns (1)-(3), robust standard errors are in parentheses in columns (4). The star mark represents its significance level, and ***, **, * indicate the significance levels at l%, 5%, and l0%, respectively. The above table only displays the regression results for the main explanatory variables, if you need the complete results for all coefficients please request them from the corresponding author, the following tables are similar.
