Heterogeneity of birth‐state effects on internal migration
在离散区位选择框架下，利用加总数据估计出生州对迁移决策的影响，发现各州存在显著的异质性和区域聚类，加州、西南部和上中西部惯性最强，山区州和纽约最弱。
Abstract Working in a discrete location choice framework, we develop a model of migration that allows the identification of heterogeneity in state‐of‐birth effects across states. We employ a novel method for using aggregate data to estimate the role of birth state on migration choices. This approach reveals considerable heterogeneity and some regional clustering in birth‐state inertia effects across states, with strong attachments in California, the Southwest, and the upper Midwest. The weakest attachments are in the mountain states and New York.
