关于南方白色移民的新奖学金挑战了长期以来关于阿巴拉契亚白色移民在北方经历的经济困难的观点。阿巴拉契亚白色移民和其他南部白色移民在40年期间的经验比较，使用综合公共使用微数据系列文件（IPUMS），显示阿巴拉契亚移民显着更贫困比其他南部白色移民。最近的研究表明，来自非阿巴拉契亚南部的移民实现了平稳的经济转型，但来自阿巴拉契亚南部地区的移民几乎与南部非洲裔美国移民和来自最贫穷发展中国家的国际移民一样贫困。对这些群体来说，经济转型是一个缓慢而艰难的过程。
New scholarship on southern white out-migration challenges long-held views regarding the economic difficulties experienced by Appalachian white migrants in the North. A comparison of the experiences of Appalachian white migrants and other southern white migrants during a forty-year period, using the Integrated Public Use Microdata Series files (IPUMS), shows that Appalachian migrants were significantly more impoverished than were other southern white migrants. As recent research suggests, migrants from the non-Appalachian South made a smooth economic transition, but migrants from the southern Appalachian region were nearly as impoverished as southern African-American migrants and international immigrants from the poorest developing countries. For these groups, the economic transition was a slow and difficult process.
