研究了长三角地区城市退休人员季节性迁往农村的两种模式（自组织和联众模式），发现这批移民多为年轻老人，看重自然人文环境、休闲设施等，这种迁移有助于缓解城市养老压力并促进农村发展。
In recent years,more and more metropolitan retirees in Changjiang River Delta choose to live in rural areas as seasonal migrants.This is the result of the high aging degree in metropolitan areas,shortage of resource in taking care of the aged in cities and the development of rural tourism.Based on field investigation of two villages in Changjiang River Delta, this paper summarized two modes(self-organizing mode and Lianzhong mode)in the formation of rural retirement destinations.This group of immigrants are mainly young-olds who care about the natural and humanity environment,leisure facilities,infrastructure,management services and the image of the destination when choosing their rural destinations. Seasonal migration of metropolitan retirees who came to rural areas nearby is helpful not only in mitigating the stress of resource shortage in taking care of the aged in metropolitan cities but also in utilizing the facilities of rural leisure destinations in off season,it leads to the improvement of the environment and rise of the income of the local residents. Towns and villages with favorable environment near metropolitan areas can attract seasonal immigrants as an alternative in their economic transition in the future.
