This paper aims at analyse the NEET phenomenon (young people not in employment, education or training) in the post-2007 financial crisis in Italy, using municipality as unit of analysis. Through new databases with high territorial detail made available by the Italian National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT) and Ministry of Education, we regress the municipal NEET rate on a selection of municipal and provincial social, economic and education indicators. We used a multi-level model to account for the nested structure of data (municipalities nested into the provinces). Results highlight the importance on NEETs, in particular, of indicators measuring the effectiveness of the education system.
