  • Note: This table displays the ordinary least squares estimates for the effect of critical habitat designation on land values in all treated counties (protecting California’s red-legged frog). Columns (1) and (2) include an intercept. Columns (6) and (7) focus on the set of parcels sold multiple times during the sample period. We cluster errors by county, quarter, and year.
