- W2085087002 abstract "Knowledge of whether, and over what range of output, there are economies ordiseconomies of scale in providing local communal services is an important question froma theoretical, practical and regional political point of view. The theoretical side of thequestion is connected to the primary research regarding the optimal city size. If an optimalcity size can actually be established, then a valid policy argument can be made for fosteringits approximation. However, theoretical considerations are sometimes based on those typesof assumptions, which are often not valid in reality. Therefore, empirical investigations areessential in this research area.After a short theoretical overview, the paper initially gives a general outline of previouscontroversial empirical evidence on economies of scale regarding community size and theprovision of local communal services. In the second part, the empirical findings arepresented; these concern economies of scale in local communal services based on a largeand detailed database, which consist of almost 300 Hungarian settlements. During theresearch, a number of methodological questions have occurred. For example, there areseveral solutions for the organisational structure providing local services, from a largeholding to the smaller individual companies. Considering this and some other issues, themain results suggest that on a community level, there are moderate economies of scale inwater supply, sewage disposal and district heating and a moderate diseconomy of scale inrefuse collection until 5 thousand inhabitants. Above this level there is no connectionbetween the settlement size and the average cost of services. The results are mainlyconsistent with the previous findings: there are economies of scale under a certainthreshold, but after this, unit cost reduction is not feasible. This threshold can be differentin the different types of services" @default.
