Geographical Mobility/Migration

The Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) is a longitudinal panel survey of demographic information, income, labor force characteristics, and program participation in the United States with supplemental topical modules.

The migration history topical module enables us to determine the seasonality of the move and the length of time (duration) at current residence. Migration data are available from 1984 to the present.
