Episode notes
- Economic connectedness is a measure of how well connected the poor are to the rich in terms of friendships.
- A fraction of the poor's friends being in the top half of the income distribution indicates higher economic connectedness.
- Economic connectedness ranges from zero to one, with zero indicating no wealthy friends and one indicating 50% of friends being above median income.
- A higher economic connectedness suggests fewer constraints on human interaction and friendships.
