“…The first approach is based largely on neoclassical economics (Sjaastad, 1962;Lee, 1966), and specifies that an individual (in this case, an evacuee from New Orleans) chooses to move (in this case, chooses to move back to the city) if the benefits from the move outweigh the costs. Individuals evaluate the current and future costs and benefits of moving, which typically differ by individual characteristics, such as age, sex, marital status, number of children, employment, occupation, and previous migration experience (Greenwood, 1975(Greenwood, , 1985Long 1992).…”

This report presents population estimates for New Orleans three months, six months, one year, and three years after Hurricane Katrina.This report was prepared after consultation with New Orleans leaders in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and was done specifically to support the efforts of the Bring New Orleans Back Commission.Projections of the future population of New Orleans are essential to the work of the Commission's subcommittees for planning, infrastructure, and sustainability. RGSPI is housed at the RAND Corporation, an international nonprofit research organization with a reputation for rigorous and objective analysis and effective solutions.

To investigate the age pattern of migration, Figure 5.1 compares age-specific movement rates from the NATSISS with equivalent rates derived from the 1996 and 2001 censuses.…”

“…Rather, on average their past and future homes will be closer to the mean of the distribution, 1.25 pCi/l. Since the average American moves 10-1 1 times over a lifetime (10), exposure to the current high levels of radon will occur during only a small fraction of that lifetime. Thus, typical persons currently exposed to high levels of radon will experience cumulative lifetime exposure reflecting a much lower average rate of exposure.…”
