Abstract: Using data from China Migrants Dynamic Survey (CMDS), this study finds that migrants’ housing expenditure pressure is negatively associated with their physical health. And the impact is mainly reflected in three aspects: the crowding-out effect, overtime working effect, and psychological anxiety effect. The association between migrants’ housing expenditure pressure and their physical health varies across individual characteristics and home ownership types. Our findings carry many policy implications from the perspective of improving the physical health level of migrants.
