This variable is set to 0 in non-consolidated cadastral areas and increases by 1 for each subsequent year after completion. TIME CLCONS × TIME Interaction term: This term is identical to the TIME variable, representing the duration of the consolidation effect, but is explicitly labelled as the interaction used in the regression model CLCONSTIME CLCONS × HHIPAYMENT CLCONS × YR2019 CLCONS × YR2020 CLCONS × YR2021 CLCONS × YR2022 Interaction term: Captures whether the effect of consolidation is modified by market concentration Interaction term: Captures the differential effect of consolidation in 2019 relative to 2018. Interaction term: Captures the differential effect of consolidation in 2020 relative to 2018. Interaction term: Captures the differential effect of consolidation in 2021 relative to 2018. Interaction term: Captures the differential effect of consolidation in 2022 relative to 2018. CLCONSHHI CLCONSYR19 CLCONSYR20 CLCONSYR21 CLCONSYR22
