    This study examines Canadian intermunicipal migration, finding housing and labor markets significantly influence moves. Adjusting for migrant selectivity accurately estimates income gains and municipal impacts.

    Area of Science:

    • Economics
    • Sociology
    • Human Geography

    Background:

    • Understanding intermunicipal migration is crucial for regional development.
    • Previous models often overlook migrant selectivity biases.
    • Canadian migration patterns require updated analysis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate individual intermunicipal migration in Canada.
    • To apply a human capital model adjusted for migrant selectivity.
    • To analyze the influence of regional, housing, and labor market factors on migration decisions.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a human capital model for migration analysis.
    • Incorporated adjustments for migrant selectivity bias.
    • Examined data from the 1971-1981 decade.

    Main Results:

    • Housing and labor market characteristics significantly impact migration.
    • Age-specific differences were observed in migration determinants.
    • Structural coefficients remained stable between 1971 and 1981.
    • Failure to adjust for selectivity underestimates migration impacts.

    Conclusions:

    • Migrant selectivity is a critical factor in migration models.
    • Housing and labor markets are key drivers of Canadian intermunicipal moves.
    • Accurate migration impact assessments require selectivity adjustments.
