Beta City

Beta City is a concept in economics and finance that models a typical or average city’s investment risk and return profile. It uses the idea of "beta" from the stock market, which measures how much an investment’s value moves relative to the overall market. In this context, Beta City represents a standard benchmark for cities' economic performance and investment risk. It helps investors, policymakers, and analysts compare different cities’ growth potential and stability, guiding decisions on where to allocate resources or investments based on anticipated risks and returns.
