Dylan Connor

Dylan Connor will focus on a new project at CASBS that synthesizes the current knowledge on how communities and regions shape the life chances of children raised by foreign- and US-born parents in the United States. This work examines these issues from a historical perspective, providing insights into how to build more equitable and enriching communities and cities, particularly in an era of major technological disruption. He specializes in causal inference and historical and spatial data infrastructure. He has also published widely on topics including the changing geography of the American Dream and spatial wealth inequality, the rural social mobility advantage, and on the economic history of Irish and Jewish immigration.

Connor is an associate professor at the School of Geographical Sciences and Urban Planning at Arizona State University and core faculty at the Spatial Analysis Research Center (SPARC).
