We use new establishment-level data and geographic mapping methods to improve upon evaluations of the effectiveness of state enterprise zones, focusing on California's program. Because zone boundaries do not follow census tracts or zip codes, we created digitized maps of original zone boundaries and later expansions. We combine these maps with geocoded observations on most businesses located in California. The evidence indicates that enterprise zones do not increase employment. We also find no shift of employment toward the lower-wage workers or manufacturing sector targeted by enterprise zone incentives. We conclude that the program is ineffective in achieving its primary goals.

Yet a new report by the California Budget Project (CBP), California's Enterprise Zones Miss the Mark, concludes that the program is too large and fails to target the areas most in need of assistance. [...] The report finds that zones lack effective targeting: about one out of eight California employees works in an enterprise zone, and zones include some of the most prosperous areas of the state. [...] California's Enterprise Zones Miss the Mark calls for specific changes to the program, including substantially reducing the number of zones; reassessing zones every five years and terminating those that are no longer economically distressed; limiting zones to the most economically distressed areas; and reforming and improving the accountability of the hiring tax credit, a component of the program. [...] The number of zones prevents the program from effectively directing economic activity to the areas most in need. [...] David Carroll, research director of the California Budget Project, noted, "The state fails to collect the data needed to evaluate the Enterprise Zone Program.
