住房对国内和国际移徙者的定居有很大影响。然而，以前的研究只关注住房所有权的作用。本研究超越了这一局限性，探讨了住房条件（包括所有权、面积、质量、位置）以及住房支持（包括住房公积金和单位住房补贴）对农民工城市定居意愿的影响。本文利用中国农村-城市移民项目的调查数据，发现居住条件较好、享受住房支持的农村移民更有决心在城市定居。此外，住房所有权与农民工城市定居意愿之间存在显著的地区差异。此外，住房支持对居住在公共租赁住房中的农村移民的城市定居意愿的影响大于居住在其他类型住房中的农村移民。这些发现突出了在分析住房与农村移民城市定居之间的关系时考虑住房和住房支持的“质量”方面的重要性。该研究还强调了在中国建立政府主导的多主体住房供应体系的必要性，以使农村移民能够在城市永久定居。
Housing greatly influences the settlement of both internal and international migrants. Yet previous studies have paid attention only to the role of homeownership. This study goes beyond this limitation and investigates how housing conditions measured by ownership, size, quality, location, and housing support including the housing provident fund and the housing subsidy from work units affect rural migrant urban settlement intentions. Using survey data from the Rural-Urban Migration in China project, this study finds that rural migrants who live in better housing conditions and enjoy housing support are more determined to settle in urban areas. In addition, significant regional differences can be observed in the association between ownership of dwelling and rural migrant urban settlement intentions. Furthermore, the effect of housing support on urban settlement intentions is stronger for rural migrants living in public rental housing than for those who live in other types of housing. Such findings highlight the importance of considering the “quality” dimension of housing and housing support when analyzing the association between housing and rural migrant urban settlement. The study also underscores the necessity of building a government-led multi-agent housing provision system in China to enable rural migrants to permanently settle down in cities.
