Between 2014 and 2060, the U.S. population is projected to increase from 319 million to 417 million, reaching 400 million in 2051.

An ecological study of age-standardized suicide rates in Belgian communities (1996-2005) was conducted using spatial regression techniques. Community characteristics were significantly related to suicide rates. There was mixed support for the social integration perspective: single person households were associated with higher suicide rates, while…

Children of immigrant backgrounds--children who are immigrants themselves or were born to immigrant parents--are the largest segment of growth in the U.S. school population. In this exploratory interdisciplinary analysis, Filindra, Blanding, and Garcia Coll ask whether the context of policy and political receptivity, even when they are not…

In the 1990s, studies have documented widespread growth of immigrants in U.S. communities not known as common destinations in the past.

In this paper, we examine the implications of recent foreign born in-migration for rural America.…

Examined the influence of birth place on the internal migration and spatial redistribution patterns of foreign-born and native-born populations in the United States for 1975 to 1980 and 1985 to 1990. Differing patterns and networks established by immigrant cohorts have resulted in higher concentrations of the foreign-born compared to the…

Examines the importance of place of birth on the internal migration and spatial redistribution patterns of the foreign-born population in the United States for 1965-70 and 1975-80, relying mainly on the Public Use Microdata sample. Age patterns of migration are also analyzed for different groups. (SLD)

Analysis of the 1990 Public Use Microdata Sample indicates that interstate migration during 1985-90 was less common for immigrant men than for non-Hispanic, White, native-born men. This difference was most strongly related to human capital factors (age, education, self-employment), followed by social capital factors (nativity group concentration)…
