Ellis, Mark (University of Washington), Circulation Migration and Poverty in a Transnational Community: Labor Force Participation of Puerto Rican Women in New York City [Abstract]

Puerto Rican women living in New York City represent a segment of a transnational community with some of the highest rates of poverty on the US mainland. This community is characterized by high rates of repetitive (circulation) migration, and we discuss evidence that links circulation migration to the reduced labor force participation of Puerto Rican women....

(Chapman) "challenged the conventional wisdom depicted by many theories. Lee's (1966) theory of migration emphasized, for the mover, the importance of place of origin, intervening variables, place of destination and the intention to move away permanently from an established place of origin or residence. However, the new conventional wisdom on "circulation" (sometimes called "circular migration") holds that movements into destinations are not intended to be permanent - even if they are long-lasting - and that the mover has an intention eventually to return to the original place of residence (Pryor, 1975)."
"The process of circulation involves many forms and types of mobility, usually short-term, but repetitive or cyclic in nature and commonly lacking any declared intention of a permanent or long-lasting change of residence (Zelinsky, 1971:225-226). The many forms of circulation range from brief, short-distance moves such as shopping, daily employment, schooling, or visiting, together termed "oscillation", to medium-term and lengthy journeys such as taking business trips or contract employment, defined as circulation (Pryor, 1975; Prothero and Chapman, 1985). The intention of the mover in circulation to return to the original place of residence involves an absence of one or more months and can be reflected by the sort of arrangements made either to retain or end ties and ongoing interests at the place of origin. This makes it possible to differentiate circulation from migration (Bedford, 1973:3)."

Matthews, John & Conrad J. Storad, Circle of Migration [ASU Research]

Kevin McHugh understands something about the idea of aging in place. But he is more intrigued by the folks who spend portions of their golden years migrating back and forth between residences in places they call home. And then there are the legions of people who actually take their homes with them and, in essence, age on the move.
