  • Description: This paper examines 1979-80 interstate migration patterns in Mexico. Our analysis takes advantage of statistical graphic techniques to illustrate the following substantive issues of interstate migration: (1) to identify states with similar migration patterns and (2) to examine socioeconomic characteristics of states at both origin and destination of migrants. Analytic techniques include regression analysis, migration flows, and statistical residual mapping. The residual dispersion patterns, for example, suggest the extent to which socioeconomic variables explain migration differences by showing unique clusters of unexplained residuals
