本文考察了移民退休后的区位选择。在劳动力因素不再重要的情况下，地点决定预计不仅取决于原籍国和东道国之间生活水平的比较，而且还应受到家庭关系强度的影响。假设移民从与其他家庭成员的接触和访问中获得一些满足，我们建议移民可以选择第三种类型的移民，超越标准的停留/返回决定，称为“va-et-vient”，其中个人选择分享他们的时间在东道国和原籍国。在实证分析中，我们调查退休时的位置意向的决定因素，使用最近的数据集目前居住在法国的移民。我们发现，移民的选择是显着相关的其他家庭成员的位置，这些决定因素不同的首选选择。
In this paper, we investigate the location choice of immigrants when retiring. In a context where labour considerations no longer matter, the location decisions are expected to depend not only on a comparison of standard-of-living between the origin and host countries, but should also be affected by the strength of family relationships. Assuming that migrants derive some satisfaction from contact and visits with other family members, we suggest that migrants may choose a third type of migration move beyond the standard stay/return decision called the ‘va-et-vient’, where individuals choose to share their time across the host and the origin country. In the empirical analysis, we investigate the determinants of the location intention when retiring using a recent data set on migrants currently living in France. We find that the migrant’s choice is significantly related to the location of other family members and that those determinants vary with respect to the different preferred choices.
