This paper uses data from the NLSY to examine the role of migration history in influencing labor migration events. It was found that young adults with some migration history were consistently more likely to migrate than young adults without such a history. One-third of the sample experienced a migration event over the period studied. Of those, 60% had moved once previously, 25% had moved twice, 9% had moved three times, and 6% had moved four or more times. Lengths of residential sojourns for the various groups of migrators and chronic migrants in particular are examined and future research topics discussed. |
