Intra-regional residential movement of the elderly: testing a suburban-to-urban migration hypothesis
Abstract The majority of the elderly and soon-to-be retired baby boomers live in suburbs in the US. This paper empirically tested an intra-regional residential movement of elderly households, which is postulated based on life course theory. Using data from the Puget Sound Transportation Panel survey in Washington State in the US, this study found that elderly households are less likely to change their residential environments than younger households upon intra-regional residential movement. This study also found that elderly households tend to move from less urbanized neighborhoods to slightly more urbanized neighborhoods, while younger households tend to move from quite urban neighborhoods to substantially less urbanized neighborhoods.
