Are new electricity/telecoms connections a good proxy for investment/development in an area?
I am starting to play with the idea that using "new connections" as a proxy for investment and/or development in an area could be interesting.
I'm not sure if this is a good idea but I thought it would be fun to try.
This is a work in progress and I will be adding to it over time to try and answer this question.
