Flocking to fire: Wildfires don't deter Americans from moving to at-risk regions
We have combined environmental data from a variety of sources to update the Natural Amenities Scale, while also incorporating natural hazards across US counties, alongside a number of socioeconomic covariates.
Understanding the baseline relationships between migration and the climate, environment, and extreme weather is an important first step in studying and preparing for migration in response to a changing climate. These relationships might not hold in the long-term, as temperatures and weather events grow more extreme, but they may be our best estimate for the near future.
Our study contributes to the literature by combining spatially explicit biophysical and socioeconomic characteristics into a novel dataset, which we use to rigorously analyze US migration patterns for the most recent decade. According to the literature we have explored, no study has yet examined the most recent national migration trends in relation to natural amenities and natural hazards.
