Abstract
⺠We use panel unit root tests with structural breaks to examine price convergence. ⺠We find overwhelming evidence of price index convergence among US cities. ⺠Speed of convergence with structural breaks is much faster than with no such breaks. ⺠Bias corrections are also important for reasonable panel estimates of half-life.
