Abstract

Local social capital might have an influence on the mobility of people living in rural areas. In this research is examined how the local social capital has an influence on mobility of the people living in the rural parts of the municipality of Heerenveen. This is done by using a quantitative research method. It seems that the local social capital for the people in this area is high and quite similar for the respondents. This is different for the mobility, which varies a lot between the respondents. Nevertheless, the respondents do almost all feel strongly mobile. This suggests there is a difference between objective and perceived mobility. When conducting a multiple linear regression, Pearson correlation and Spearman's rho correlation analyses, no significant relationship between local social capital and mobility is found. This suggests there is no relationship between local social capital and mobility for the people living in the particular area.
