Additional life course interpretations
Age groups 0-15 & 30-44:
- High rates of out-migration from Dynamic London Cluster to Middle Class Commuter cluster = down urban hierarchy move (Plane et al. 2005)?
- Yes, but high frictional effects of distance and low flow distances reflect the strong economic pull of capital fighting pull of improved ‘family rearing’ opportunities outside the Capital – thus limiting distance travelled
- Strong interaction between two clusters important in internal migration profile of Britain – not just down the urban hierarchy in an unselective way
Notes:
Perception better schools, safer… etc.
