Net migration, unemployment, and the business cycle.
"An empirical test of the effects of exogenous shocks upon a region's population size is conducted in the framework of an equilibrium locational model.  The model emphasizes the separation of endogenous from exogenous factors, a point omitted in most empirical studies of aggregate migration.  Exogenous changes are manifested in the local relative cost of living and the local relative unemployment rate.  Hypotheses are tested using a national sample of youth, in addition to census, data [for the United States].  Surprisingly, a simple measure of the size of shock to a regional economy has the greatest explanatory power compared to more sophisticated measures based on prior business cycles."
