Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the relationships between the residential (or intra-urban) mobility of households and variables describing the households and the residential areas where the households are located. The paper is based on data from a more comprehensive study on migration and residential mobility in the Helsinki [Finland] metropolitan area.... Individual-level records from the 1980 census and records on all moves to from or within the area in 1981 were linked. Variables considered include phase of life cycle discrepancy between housing needs and housing situation economic resources of households percentage of high-income households in the residential areas and physical character of the areas. A linear logistic model is used to analyze the importance of the variables and their interactions. It is concluded that household characteristics are much more important determinants of residential mobility than area characteristics. (EXCERPT)
