This article proposes the concept of human capital space (HCS) to understand the complex relationship between people and space in economic development. It examines HCS typology, spatial externalities, a selection-sorting-matching mechanism, and its role in building dynamic capabilities in cities and regions. The author argues that HCS is a useful tool for human-centered spatial development, informing policies and effective investment in space.
