연령대별 지역간 인구이동 특성의 시계열적 변화

초록

This paper examines the marginal impacts of demographic and economic factors on the choice of destination for migrants in Korea. Some of previous studies suggest that the older tends to migrate to the areas with more pleasant environments or the areas with lower price homes. Other studies tested whether the life-cycle hypothesis is acceptable or not. Using migration flow data, this study examines the differentiated migration behaviors by age bracket. The analytic model includes distance as a friction factor against migration, population as local amenity, and housing price as local utility. The results show that the migrants are less likely to move to areas of higher housing prices and areas with higher population density in recent years comparing with about a decade ago. These propensities are varying by age bracket. The older has the lowest preference for the areas with high housing price and high population density among other age groups.
