Local governments have created economic development strategies to enhance local economic performance. Citizens, for-profit and non-profit organizations involve in designing local economic development strategies. Despite the growing roles of citizens in developing the strategies, The outcomes of citizen involvement in economic development arenas remain unclear. This study clarifies how citizen involvement in economic development policy making is associated with local economic prosperity and equity by employing a local economic development survey and the Census data. The results report that citizen involvement in economic development policy has positive impacts on median house income, Gini Index and poverty rate.
