The present study provides evidence on this topic at the regional level, based on the analysis of 275 Portuguese counties.The results obtained confirm theimportance of several explanatory factors, suggesting that the structural similaritybetween Portuguesecounties increases with geographical proximity, the existence of ashared boundary, the similarity of factor endowments in terms of physical and humancapital and the similarity in terms of economic centrality and market dimension.
