  1. Understanding Population Trends and Processes:Links between internal migration, commuting and within household relationships Oliver Duke-Williams School of Geography, University of Leeds o.w.duke-williams@leeds.ac.uk www.geog.leeds.ac.uk/people/o.duke-williams/ ESRC Grant No: RES 163-25-0007

  2. Migration and commuting • Migration and commuting are important agents of change • Migration behaviour varies with • The number of persons who move together • The presence (or not) of existing residents in the destination household • Relationships between migrants and existing residents

  3. Migration and commuting • Migration affects patterns of commuting • Change in location of employment • Change in journey to work • Trade-offs between migration and commuting • Long distance weekly commuting • Dual career households

  4. Aims • Investigate trends and processes related to characteristics of individuals and groups of migrants • Investigate interactions between migration and commuting behaviour • Investigate how relationships between and within groups of migrants and residents explain mobility patterns

  5. Data sources • 2001 Census • Longitudinal Study • Labour Force Survey • British Household Panel Survey

  6. Objectives • Classifying moving group types

  7. Moving groups • A new innovation in the 2001 Census • Allows separate groups within the household to be identified • Previous Censuses had only ‘migrants’ and ‘wholly moving households’

  8. Moving groups in the UK • About 3.5million groups identified • These contained 5.8million migrants • Group size distribution is different for wholly moving and other groups Source: 2001 Census: Special Migration Statistics Level 1; Table MG106

  9. Classifying group types

  10. Classifying group types

  11. Classifying group types

  12. Classifying group types

  13. Classifying group types

  14. Objectives • Classifying moving group types • Describe spatial patterns of internal migration in UK by various groups

  15. Spatial patterns of migration • How do preferred destinations vary for groups of different sizes? • Is there a difference in the distances travelled?

  16. Objectives • Classifying moving group types • Describe spatial patterns of internal migration in UK by various groups • Describe spatial patterns of commuting behaviour by household composition

  17. Spatial commuting patterns • Using the Census, explore patterns at an aggregate scale • By family status • By living arrangements • Using the Labour Force Survey, explore patterns for individuals at national scale

  18. Objectives • Classifying moving group types • Describe spatial patterns of internal migration in UK by various groups • Describe spatial patterns of commuting behaviour by household composition • Relate spatial behaviour to relationships within household

  19. Relationship matrix • Allows a partial grid to be constructed • Remainder is derived • Information for 6th and subsequent persons is limited Source: 2001 Census form H1. ONS

  20. Relationship matrix • Allows wider range of family types to be identified • Extended families • Multi-generational families • Allows easier identification of hidden families

  21. Relating spatial behaviour and household relationships • Use records from Longitudinal Study • Explore patterns for a sample of individual households • How well do aggregate patterns reflect range of individual patterns? • Analysis likely to be at national level • Explore long-term stability of moving groups

  22. Objectives • Classifying moving group types • Describe spatial patterns of internal migration in UK by various groups • Describe spatial patterns of commuting behaviour by household composition • Relate spatial behaviour to relationships within household • Link migration patterns to commuting behaviour

  23. Linking migration and commuting patterns • Use BHPS to study motivations for migration and impact on households • Changes in material circumstance • Changes in household composition • Use LFS to study • Changes in commuting behaviour • Find comparator households to those in LS
