“…Educational attainment is a less strong predictor of moving for the Swedish and foreign-background groups in the second cohort, but high education is associated with a higher risk of moving for the non-western, foreignborn group in the second cohort. This final aspect is similar to Kadarik's (2020) finding that educational attainment is an important factor in non-western, foreign-born residents' ability to navigate the housing market. The educational attainment variable is possibly correlated with labour market connections and other aspects that increase possibilities to navigate the housing market.…”

“…The findings suggest that the place-stratification framework is important when discussing processes in the Stockholm housing market and the reproduction of ethnic segregation. Ethnic hierarchies have been shown to exist (Quillian 2003;Bråmå and Andersson 2005;Kadarik 2020), with the non-western, foreign-born residents being less able to convert higher income levels into housing in other types of neighbourhoods than those with higher immigrant-concentration levels. The Swedish-background group faces less restrictions, which agrees with results from other national contexts (e.g.…”

“…This to some extent confirms the applicability of place-stratification theory to analysing differences in housing trajectories between the ethnic majority and minority populations in Sweden. Kadarik (2020), using Swedish data, demonstrates a greater applicability of the weak version of the placestratification framework than of spatial-assimilation theory.…”

“…The broad changes and differences between these large groups based on country of birth thus serve the aim of this article. (For a more detailed analysis of ethnic hierarchies and mobility in Sweden, see Kadarik 2020. ) Other key explanatory variables used in the empirical part are income and housing tenure.…”

The central themes of this study are how housing tenure affects moving away from neighbourhoods with differing degrees of immigrant concentration in Stockholm and, comparing two cohorts, how the relationship between housing tenure, ethnic background and residential mobility develops over time. The findings reveal that the effect of housing tenure on moving varies marginally between neighbourhood types, and differences between housing tenures are reduced over time. Residential mobility is increasingly associated with higher income levels and members of the non-western, foreign-born group are less likely to move when the housing market is increasingly owner dominated. These ethnic hierarchies also apply to residential sorting. The sorting of outmovers from neighbourhoods with high concentrations of immigrants is increasingly affected by income. However, the non-western, foreignborn group is also increasingly dependent on housing assets in order to leave immigrant-dense neighbourhoods, which is not the case for other groups. The results show a shift in the necessary resources for residential mobility trajectories for those at the bottom end of the ethnic hierarchy and indicate that the place-stratification framework needs to differentiate between different types of assets and population groups to enable a better understanding of residential sorting in a changing housing market.

“…The level of residential clustering tends to be especially high for migrants upon arrival, especially when arriving from a low-income country (Macpherson & Strömgren, 2013), but the longer duration of residing in a certain neighbourhood also seems to decrease the incentive to move (Vogiazides, 2018). However, a better housing market position at the start of the housing career in a new country can facilitate spatial integration (Kadarik, 2020).…”

Since 1990s Stockholm housing market has seen deregulations in accordance with liberalization trends in other European welfare states. The new governance principles together with increasing immigration and public rental housing conversions into cooperative housing in attractive inner city areas have put pressure on still rental-dominated estates because fewer rental dwellings must now cater to expanding numbers of people who have little choice on the housing market. In recent decades, many estates have displayed increasing signs of stigmatization, social exclusion, and outflow of relatively affluent people. This paper improves our knowledge of how the housing policy and economic changes have affected out-mobility from the housing estates in case of three cohorts of young people and how the childhood neighbourhood conditions affect this. Individual annual Swedish registry data (1990–2014) are employed to longitudinally study the out-mobility patterns of three cohorts that grew up in the estates against the backdrop of marketization, growing inequality and deteriorating conditions. This study supplements the existing literature on housing estates by clarifying how income has become more and ethnicity less important over time in explaining sorting patterns from these estates. However, the combination of the two has determined sorting throughout the study period. Growing up in a higher socioeconomic status neighbourhood had modest impact on reducing socioeconomic differences in out-mobility from the estates, while leading to more sorting based on ethnic background.

Moves into and out of privileged neighbourhoods as well as moves into and out of disadvantaged neighbourhoods in metropolitan Sweden are studied using register data on all moves by adults that took place between 2004 and 2006. Based on estimated multivariate models, we find that, for all four types of moves, age, education, household income, household composition and its changes, as well as labour market status and its changes, matter. However, in addition, where the person was born can matter, as, with some exceptions, foreign‐born people are less likely than natives with the same characteristics to move into a privileged neighbourhood. Furthermore, foreign‐born are typically less likely than natives with the same characteristics to move out of the metropolitan regions. However, considerable heterogeneity in probabilities to move between those born in different categories of countries is found. Adults born in high‐income countries are, in many cases, moving similarly to natives with the same characteristics, while this is typically not found among people born in low‐income countries. The latter might be due to fewer assets, lesser social capital, discrimination in the housing market or in housing finance or by choice.
