Unveiling the linkages between housing conditions and outward migration dynamics: A case study

Abstract

This study seeks to enhance the existing body of knowledge by examining the intricate relationship between housing conditions and patterns of outward migration. By drawing on relevant literature and empirical evidence, the research explores the diverse ways in which housing conditions impact the decision-making process of individuals and communities regarding migration to foreign countries. The analysis encompasses a comprehensive investigation into the influence of housing affordability, quality, availability, and stability on the dynamics of external migration. Methodologically, a mixed approach is employed, combining quantitative analysis of demographic and housing data with qualitative correlation analysis to capture the multifaceted nature of the phenomenon under investigation. The study aims to examine the effects of external migration on key indicators of the housing stock, particularly the commissioning of housing and the provision of living space for the population. A thorough understanding of the complex relationship between housing conditions and outward migration dynamics can inform the development of targeted interventions and policies to address migration-related challenges and improve housing conditions, thus reducing population outflows. Moreover, the research outcomes contribute to broader discussions on sustainable urban development, equitable housing, and social cohesion in the context of contemporary migration trends.
