这项研究提供了新的证据的辩论,就业机会与城市设施,在确定的地点选择的移民。我们采用了一个条件logit模型来产生可信的估计,使用两个大的代表性数据集对中国的内部移民。我们的研究结果证实,工作机会和设施发挥一致的和突出的作用,内部移民的地理选择,而高技能移民往往更重视城市的设施。此外,中国的户籍制度似乎发挥了不可否认的作用:流动人口越来越多地避开提供更优质公共服务的城市,而这些服务在很大程度上仍然是中国临时移民无法获得的。
This study provides new evidence on the debate of job opportunities versus urban amenities in determining the locational choice of migrants. We employ a conditional logit model to generate credible estimates, using two large representative data sets on China’s internal migrants. Our findings confirm that both job opportunities and amenities play consistent and salient roles in the geographical choice of internal migrants, while highly skilled migrants tend to attach more importance to urban amenities. Additionally, China’s household registration system seems to play an undeniable role: migrants are increasingly shunning cities providing better quality public services that are still largely inaccessible to temporary migrants in China.
