Notes. Standard errors are in parentheses. **** p < 0.001, *** p < 0.01, ** p < 0.05, * p < 0.1. Coefficient estimates are raw coefficients from ordered probit (oprobit) estimations
The individual-level controls are employment status, household wealth index and level of education. The geographic controls are latitude and longitude. The macroeconomic controls are GDP per capita and unemployment rate in 2015. All regressions include county fixed effects
