He collaborates with institutions like RWI-Essen and has published in top journals such as Regional Science and Urban Economics. His toolkits are available on GitHub, including repositories for Berlin Wall analysis, spatial models, and rent/price indices. Ahlfeldt’s contributions span academic lectures, software development, and applied research in urban policy.
