  • Title: Accounting for spatial relationships in models of interstate population migration.
    Author: Cushing BJ.
    Journal: Ann Reg Sci; 1986 Jul; 20(2):66-73. PubMed ID: 12340702.
    Abstract:
    "This study focuses on the specification of distance and space in models of state-to-state population migration [in the United States]....Four models of interstate population migration are developed, with increasingly complex specifications of space. The models are estimated using 1975 to 1980 migration data for the 48 contiguous states of the United States. Common borders and bordering metropolitan areas do influence interstate population flows. Models lacking a more detailed specification of space will lose explanatory power and suffer from biases."
