    Workers migrate to defense industry jobs, not the other way around. This defense industry growth fuels regional labor pool formation and increases overall labor migration across the United States.

    Area of Science:

    • Economics
    • Sociology
    • Urban Studies

    Background:

    • Labor migration patterns are influenced by various economic sectors.
    • The defense industry represents a significant economic force with potential impacts on employment and population distribution.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the impact of the defense industry on labor migration within the United States.
    • To determine the direction of causality between defense industry job growth and worker migration.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized U.S. Census data from 1975-1980.
    • Employed econometric analysis to examine correlations between defense industry employment and labor flows.

    Main Results:

    • Evidence suggests workers follow defense industry job opportunities.
