Age-specific migration and regional diversity

R Morrill

Environment and Planning A, 1994, vol. 26, issue 11, 1699-1710

Abstract: This author examines patterns of age-specific migration between 1980 and 1990 for a small, growing region, the Pacific Northwest of the USA, with the purpose of assessing the degree of geographic diversity in experience. A simple typology of the expected spatial and structural pattern of age-specific migration is proposed. Ouster analysis is used to group counties on the basis of age-specific rates of net migration. Even this fairly small region is found to exemplify most of the patterns that might be expected to occur in the nation as a whole.
