An economic boom in Seattle may have caused some low$-$wage workers to become "high$-$wage workers," decreasing measured employment among low$-$wage workers.

The sample size used in the study was too small to produce statistically significant results.

The comparison areas$-$cities that did not implement a rise in the minimum wage$-$were disimilar to Seattle in key respects.

The study doesn't include large firms, which perhaps can accommodate higher wages better than small firms.
