To measure differences in economic mobility across American metro areas over the last generation, this research uses three nationally representative, longitudinal data sets: the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979, the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997, and the Panel Study of Income Dynamics. Each data set follows and collects information on a sample of individuals over time, allowing for measurement of family income during an individual’s childhood and again in adulthood.
