Examining data from Sweden, Germany, and Switzerland, J. Lacroix, @ischiathere.bsky.social, @maryabedalahad.bsky.social, H. Kulu, together with G. Andersson, show that immigrants and refugees tend to move to urban areas following initial settlement and dispersal policy.

Another study led by @jharrison37.bsky.social finds persistent gaps in residential mobility and homeownership between the native population and immigrants + their descendants. @jmikolai.bsky.social @ischiathere.bsky.social @maryabedalahad.bsky.social

I am so happy to have presented in two sessions at #BSPS2025 conference on Life course trajectories of descendants of immigrants in Sweden and on Life satisfaction, health and air pollution. @bspsuk.bsky.social @cpc-cg.bsky.social @phrg-standrews.bsky.social @migrantlife.bsky.social

@maryabedalahad.bsky.social jumped from France to #Sweden to look at #homeownership, #marriage & #childbirth among #immigrants & their #descendants. She shows greater life event convergence to the Swedish natives across migrant generations & the importance of homeownership for other life events.

Looking forward to seeing many of you tomorrow at my @bspsuk.bsky.social conference presentation tomorrow.
