  • Title: Migration and job change: a multinomial logit approach.
    Author: Linneman P, Graves PE.
    Journal: J Urban Econ; 1983 Nov; 14(3):263-79. PubMed ID: 12312598.
    Abstract:
    A multinomial logit model of residence and job change is developed and estimated using U.S. data from the Michigan Panel Study of Income Dynamics. It is found that both housing demand and job search characteristics are significant determinants of the decision to migrate and that both equilibrium and disequilibrium forces induce migration and job change. In addition, "the data do not appear to be ordered with respect to job and residence change contingencies with the exception of changing neither job nor residence relative to all other contingencies."
