Abstract

This article replicates previous work by McLeod et al. (1984) on the determinants of state to state flows of elderly migrants in the United States. This article deals with the 1975-1980 period and finds broad similarity in the magnitude and direction of explanatory relationships. In addition, the article reports on the use of experimental state-level cost of living indicators as explanatory variables. These performed as expected with high cost of living at origin and low cost of living at destination both explaining the magnitude of state to state flows.
