在本文中，我们通过两个单独的分析来研究实际和计划的住宅搬迁。尽管我们现在拥有关于住宅流动性的稳健模型和实质性实证分析，特别是住房消费的作用和引发住宅流动的变量，但我们不太清楚该模型如何适用于少数族裔家庭和不同种族环境。我们使用洛杉矶家庭和邻里研究（一项关于洛杉矶地区流动性和邻里变化的纵向研究）的数据来对比白人和拉丁裔家庭的流动性结果。在单独的分析中，我们检查了计划的流动性，并扩展了对邻里变量在解释预期流动性方面的作用的分析。通过纳入邻里满意度和不满意的衡量标准，我们发现，正如假设的那样，低满意度以及邻里是否被视为“紧密结合”是未来搬迁可能性的适度预测因素。然而，除了年龄和住房需求的结构性影响之外，邻里变量对意图的附加影响相当小。
In this paper we examine, in two separate analyses, actual and planned residential moves. Although we now have robust models and substantive empirical analysis of residential mobility, especially of the role of housing consumption and the variables that trigger residential moves, we are less clear about how the model applies to minority households and in diverse ethnic settings. We use data from the Los Angeles Family and Neighborhood Study-a longitudinal study of mobility and neighborhood change in the Los Angeles region-to contrast the mobility outcomes for white and Latino households. In a separate analysis we examine planned mobility and extend the analysis of the role of neighborhood variables in explaining expected mobility. Through the incorporation of measures of neighborhood satisfaction and dissatisfaction we find, as hypothesized, that low levels of satisfaction and whether or not the neighborhood is perceived as 'close-knit' are modest predictors of the likelihood of future moves. However, the additive effect of neighborhood variables on intentions, beyond the structural effects of age and housing needs, is quite small.
