本文在当前中国移民的背景下考虑移民的经济模式。我们认为，使用正式改变一个人的户籍（户口）的位置是过于狭隘的政策目的的定义定居。相反，我们表明，在城市的时间和与配偶共同居住和单独与子女揭示了系统的定居行为的一部分移民。所提供的经验证据主要是描述性的，但表明那些移徙时年龄较轻、目前已婚和自营职业的移徙者在城市生活的时间较长。那些在城市里呆得更久的男性和个体经营者更有可能和他们的妻子共同居住。自营职业也是父母与子女共同居住的一个预测因素。
This paper considers economic models of migration in the context of current Chinese migration. We argue that using formally changing one's household registration (hukou) location is too narrow a definition of settlement for policy purposes. Instead we show that time in the city and co-residence with spouses and separately with children reveals systematic settlement behavior on the part of a subset of migrants. The empirical evidence offered is largely descriptive but shows that those migrants who were younger at the age of migration, who are currently married and self-employed spend more years in the city. Men who have been in the city longer and are self-employed are much more likely to be co-residing with their wife. Self-employment is also a predictor of co-residence with children for both mothers and fathers.
