Following People Through Time: An Analysis of Individual Residential Mobility Biographies

Abstract: The life course framework guides us towards investigating how dynamic life course careers affect residential mobility decision-making and behaviour throughout long periods of individual lifetimes. However, most longitudinal studies linking mobility decision-making to subsequent moving behaviour focus only on year-to-year transitions. This study moves beyond this snapshot approach by analysing the long-term sequencing of moving desires and mobility behaviour within individual lives. Using novel techniques to vi… Show more

“…These findings led to the concept of selective migration -that individuals and families who move may differ from the populations in origin and destination areas and have differing capacities to select areas that they may migrate to compared to the general population. While this concept still underpins modern migration theory, in recent years there has been an increasing emphasis on how the specific context of people's lives influences their mobility and migration patterns (Coulter and van Ham 2013). This approach argues that while broad social differences of mobile and nonmobile groups are important for determining group level patterns, it is individual, context-specific experiences that actively drive mobility by acting as exogenous shocks on people and their underlying mobility decisionmaking processes (Morris, Manley, and Sabel 2016).…”

“…Desde esta visión, más centrada en explicar comportamientos más amplios -enlazando las acciones y las elecciones concretas-, los cambios y las permanencias son capítulos de una misma historia residencial. Coulter y van Ham (2013), en un estudio sobre historias individuales de (in)movilidad, comprueban que las trayectorias residenciales se caracterizan por tener una cierta inercia a lo largo del tiempo. Hay grupos de personas consistentemente sedentarios o permanentemente móviles.…”

“…En todo caso, aunque los datos disponibles para el área metropolitana de Granada nos han permitido llevar a cabo un primer abordaje al estudio de las historias de (in)movilidad en contextos urbanos, para avanzar nuevos análisis, necesitaría-mos disponer de fuentes con información más plural en cuanto a cuestiones que se recogen y más ricas en cuanto a su sistematización y periodicidad. Ya sea en forma de encuesta periódica, como el British Household Panel Survey (BHPS) usado para estudios desarrollados en el Reino Unido (Coulter y van Ham, 2013), o en base a registros administrativos longitudinales utilizados en países como Suecia (Fischer y Malmberg, 2001) o los Países Bajos (van Ham et al, 2014), la disposición de datos longitudinales (o paneles específicos sobre comportamiento residencial) posibilitaría corroborar algunos de los resultados obtenidos en este trabajo y es una apuesta indispensable si queremos profundizar en la explicación de la (in)movilidad en contextos urbanos y realizar comparaciones a lo largo del territorio español, así como a nivel internacional. Ante la primera pregunta de nuestra investigación (¿Cómo estudiar historias de (in)movilidad residencial y espacial con los datos disponibles?…”

“…What these data sets provided was the events and their timing that define the life course. The longitudinal studies followed people and their marriages, the births, divorces, the new jobs, the entrances and exits from the labor market and how these events interacted with the housing stock (Mulder, 2006;Coulter and van Ham, 2013;Coutler et al, 2015). With panel data it has been possible to better interrogate the decision making process and how intentions are formed and translated into moves (DeGroot et al, 2011a;2011b;Coulter et al, 2011;Clark and Lisowski, 2016), and to examine the changing nature of the outcomes of those moves.…”
