In this study, we examine the relationship between the number of nonprofits from five different subfields in a municipality and its socioeconomic indicators using data from Brazil. The literature on nonprofit density is relevant in enhancing the understanding of the role of the nonprofit sector, evaluating its efficiency, and responding to the increasing demand for accountability. However, researchers have criticized the lack of sample representation in studies on this topic, which are mostly concentrated in large US cities. Using linear regression models, we show that Brazilian municipalities with better levels of development in terms of health and employment and income have a greater number of nonprofit organizations in their territory. Meanwhile, the level of development in terms of education tends to be negatively related to nonprofit density. Our results partially support interdependence theory by highlighting the availability of resources as an important driver of nonprofit density. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
