Description: This toolkit implements a numerical solution algorithm to
        invert a quality of life measure from observed data. Unlike the
        traditional Rosen-Roback measure, this measure accounts for
        mobility frictions—generated by idiosyncratic tastes and local
        ties — and trade frictions — generated by trade costs and
        non-tradable services, thereby reducing non-classical
        measurement error. The QoL measure is based on Ahlfeldt, Bald,
        Roth, Seidel (2024)
