Popis: This article provides the first set of estimates of the degree of local bias in food consumption, by adapting the international trade notion of home bias, or consumers' tendency to favor domestic over imported goods, to local bias, which describes the tendency of consumers to favor local over nonlocal food. Using state boundaries to define local and household data on cow milk purchases from 2007 until 2016 in the New England region, estimates from the Armington model confirm a bias for fluid milk brands identified as local.
