Abstract
This research analyzes international migrants who arrived in Amsterdam in 2013 and performed a subsequent move within a short time frame. The study shows that international migrants aged 25-34 are generally most mobile. Also, male international migrants perform more subsequent moves than female international migrants, with an exception of subsequent international moves. Furthermore, Western international migrants exhibit more subsequent international moves, whereas non-Western international migrants perform more subsequent moves within the Netherlands. In a second analysis, theories of spatial assimilation are tested to define differences in subsequent moving patterns of Western- and non-Western as well as highly skilled and non-highly skilled international migrants. The main predictions of theories of spatial assimilation are mostly confirmed as both highly-skilled migrants and Western migrants show a higher likelihood than non-highly skilled- and non-Western migrants of moving towards areas where the Dutch native population resides.
