Zusammenfassung: 
This study examines the response among young adults to the closure of a large local employer. By using military base closures in Sweden, I find that men experience lower earnings and enroll in tertiary education. This is driven by low-ability men who choose shortterm enrollment at nearby colleges and universities. For women, the closures have a positive impact after some years, with increases in both earnings and employment rates, suggesting that closing down a male-dominated employer can benefit the female labor supply.
