Impact of Urban Morphology on Household Entrepreneurial Decisions
From the perspective of the spatial characteristic of urban geometry,this paper ex-plores the impact of geospatial elements on household entrepreneurial activities in the digital economy.This paper finds that the looser the urban morphology,the lower the probability of household participation in entrepreneurial activities.This may be due to the inhibitory effect of loosening urban morphology on demand markets and knowledge spillovers that prevent households from perceiving and creating entrepreneurial opportunities,and the negative impact on household entrepreneurial capital under the constraints of traditional credit supply and on the accumulation of networking resources characterized by clan networks that weaken household entrepreneurial dy-namics.Additionally,this paper finds that urban cultural factors are important forces in mitiga-ting the negative impact of morphological disadvantage on household entrepreneurial decisions.The extended analysis shows that while the loose urban morphology negatively affects households'offline entrepreneurial activities,it promotes individuals to seek breakthroughs in the virtual space,which has a facilitating effect on households'online entrepreneurial projects.The conclu-sion of this paper proves the impact of urban space on subjects and environment and shows that the current entrepreneurial opportunities and resource aggregation still have a dependence on spa-tial distance,providing a new perspective for better understanding the development concept of"compact city"and further promoting"mass entrepreneurship and innovation".
