MIGRATION AND REDISTRIBUTION OF THE US ELDERLY

该项目将进行一系列综合分析， 美国各州老年人口再分布 和大都市地区的数据。其目标是： (1)确定老年人移徙的选择性和决定因素 在全国范围内的空间系统流， (2)为了确定人口迁移和老龄化的相对贡献， 老年人口的规模和组成， 个别地区（州和大都市地区）。 这些总体水平分析将利用多变量分析， 人口预测技术是人口学研究中常见的技术， 社会学和地理学。他们将采用1990年人口普查的综合数据， 5%和3%文件，以及特殊的未抑制完整样本 1990年、1980年和1970年美国人口普查的移民表格。的 这些大文件的可用性，与分析技术一起使用 在本提案中讨论的，将允许我们更新和整合 早期对老年人移民和 重新分配到一个单一的调查。

This project will undertake an integrated set of analyses that link elderly migration to elderly population redistribution across U.S. states and metropolitan areas using 1990 census data. Its goals will be: (1) To identify the selectivity and determinants of elderly migration streams across a nation-wide spatial system, and (2) To determine the relative contribution of migration and aging-in- place for the size and composition of the elderly populations for individual areas (States and metropolitan areas). These aggregate-level analyses will utilize multivariate analyses and population projection techniques common to studies in demography, sociology, and geography. They will employ the combined 1990 census PUMS 5% and PUMSO 3% files, as well as special unsuppressed full sample migration tabulations from the 1990, 1980, and 1970 U.S. censuses. The availability of these large files, utilized with the analytic techniques discussed in this proposal, will permit us to update and integrate the findings of earlier, separate studies of elderly migration and redistribution into a single investigation.
