Regional Labor Market Dynamics, Housing, and Migration
研究了工厂层面的劳动力市场动态和住房市场如何影响人口迁移流动,发现内部劳动力周转增加会减少迁出从而提升净迁入,而房价上涨和自有住房比例高则通过减少迁入抑制净迁入。
Abstract. This study explores the impact of plant‐level labor market dynamics and housing markets on gross migration flows. The internal and the external reorganizations of regional labor markets are shown to be related. An increase in internal turnover of jobs and workers in regional labor markets is found to increase net‐migration. This effect arises mainly from a reduction in out‐migration. Housing markets constitute constraints for migration. In particular, an increase in regional housing prices and a large share of owner‐occupancy housing discourages net‐migration to a region by reducing in‐migration. In contrast, the out‐migration rate remains largely unaffected by housing markets.
