Does Immigration Reduce imbalances among labor markets or increase them? evidence from recent migration flows
Immigration from abroad has increased dramatically since the 1960s, as workers from less developed countries have moved to the US in search of higher wages. One way immigration affects the economy is through the labor market. At the national level, immigration is widely believed to harm native workers with similar skills by reducing their wages or their probability of obtaining a job. Some natives may move out of these markets to avoid a cut in wages, and other natives may avoid these markets even if they would be well suited to living there on other grounds. This article sheds new light on the impact of immigration on the allocation of workers across markets. The authors conclude that the impact of immigration on the geographic allocation of labor is neither as harmful as immigration opponents sometimes suggest, nor as beneficial as immigration supporters sometimes claim..Printed journal
