我们通过调查南非与 COVID-19 相关的初始封锁的各个阶段的成年人流动性，探索危机期间生活安排的灵活性。生活安排不是一成不变的，它们可能会因经济和健康冲击而发生很大变化。南非的情况特别值得研究，因为研究表明，许多家庭仍然在农村和城市节点之间“捉襟见肘”，而亲属网络已被认为是困难时期的重要支持来源。我们使用描述性方法来分析流动性，以预测“硬”（5 级）封锁（几乎所有经济和现场教学活动都暂停），以及随后放松至 4 级封锁。数据来自在 COVID-19 期间进行的南非最大的非医疗快速流动调查，该调查采用电话访谈的方式对采用分层抽样设计抽取的 7074 名成年人进行了代表性样本的调查。我们发现，在 2020 年 COVID-19 封锁的最初几个月里，大约 16% 的南非成年人搬进了另一个家庭。大多数成年人（82%）只搬过一次家；那些搬过两次家的人最有可能找到工作返回，这表明这些搬家者包括循环劳务移民。该研究强调了成年人的“双根性”，他们仍然依附于另一个“家庭”的家，并指出了在失业时生活安排作为生计策略的重要性。
We explore flexibility in living arrangements during times of crisis by investigating adult mobility at various stages of the COVID-19 related initial lockdown in South Africa. Living arrangements are not static, and they may change considerably in response to economic and health shocks. The South African context is particularly interesting to investigate because studies suggest that many households remain “stretched” between rural and urban nodes, and kin networks have been identified as an important source of support during times of hardship. We use descriptive methods to analyze mobility in anticipation of the “hard” (level 5) lockdown, when almost all economic and on-site teaching activity was suspended, and the subsequent easing to lockdown level 4. The data come from the largest South African non-medical rapid mobile survey conducted during COVID-19, which employed telephone interviews to survey a representative sample of 7074 adults drawn using a stratified sampling design. We find that during the first few months of the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020, approximately 16 percent of adults in South Africa had moved into a different household. Most adults (82%) only moved once; those who moved twice were the most likely to have employment to return to, suggesting that these movers include circular labour migrants. The study highlights the “double-rootedness” of adults, who remain attached to another “family” home, and it points to the importance of living arrangements as a livelihood strategy when employment is lost.
