Other research has found more consistent increases in urban consumption inequality over time until the end of the last decade. Ding and He (2018) showed increasing inequality with the CHIP between the years 1995, 2002, and 2007, showing that Gini in consumption was higher than in income. ...

A positive time trend value suggests that there is an autonomous increase in income inequality over time with the Gini coefficient increasing by 0.004 per year. The gross domestic product measures national income and output for a given country's economy. GDP is equal to the total expenditures ...
Our findings build on this work by evaluating variability in the strength of the association between income inequality and COVID-19 cases and deaths at the county level over time.12 Moreover, our work accounts for additional potential confounding factors, such as crowding and urban or rural ...
