Tammaru, T. (author), Strömgren, M. (author), Van Ham, M. (author), Danzer, A.M. (author)Contemporary cities are becoming more and more diverse in population as a result of immigration. Research shows that while residential neighborhoods are becoming ethnically more diverse within cities, residential segregation from natives has overall remained persistently high. High levels of segregation are often seen as negative, preventing the...journal article 2016

Magi, K.A.D.I. (author), Leetmaa, K. (author), Tammaru, T. (author), Van Ham, M. (author)Most studies of the ethnic composition of destination neighbourhoods after residential moves do not take into account the types of moves people have made. However, from an individual perspective, different types of moves may result in neighbourhood environments that differ in terms of their ethnic composition from those in which individuals...journal article 2015

Coulter, R. (author), Van Ham, M. (author), Findlay, A. (author)While researchers are increasingly reconceptualising international migration, less interest is being shown in rethinking the geographies of short-distance residential mobility and immobility. Short-distance moves are crucial for the structuration of everyday life, the operation of housing and labour markets and the (re)production of social...journal article 2013

Kleinhans, R.J. (author), Van Ham, M. (author)In the last few decades, urban renewal policies have taken firm root in many Western European countries. Underlying these renewal policies is a strong belief in negative neighborhood effects of living in poverty concentration areas, often neighborhoods with a large share of social housing. In Europe, great importance is attached to creating a...journal article 2013

Van Ham, M. (author), Williamson, L. (author), Feijten, P. (author), Boyle, P. (author)We gratefully acknowledge financial support from the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) (RES-000-22-2460). Part of the political argument in favour of the right to buy (RTB) was that it would stimulate the economy by encouraging the inter-regional mobility of those in public sector housing. This is the first study to examine whether RTB...journal article 2012

Coulter, R. (author), Van Ham, M. (author), Feijten, P. (author)Most studies of residential mobility decision-making focus on the housing and neighbourhood satisfaction and pre-move thoughts of individuals. This implicitly assumes that individual evaluations represent the wider household unit. However, if partners in a couple do not share evaluations of dwelling or neighbourhood quality or do not agree on...journal article 2011

Coulter, R. (author), Van Ham, M. (author), Feijten, P. (author)Residential mobility theory proposes that moves are often preceded by the expression of moving desires and expectations. Much research has investigated how individuals form these pre-move thoughts, with a largely separate literature examining actual mobility. Although a growing number of studies link premove thoughts to subsequent moving...journal article 2011

Coulter, R. (author), Van Ham, M. (author)Conceptually, adopting a life course approach when analysing residential mobility enables us to investigate how experiencing particular life events affects mobility decision-making and behaviour throughout individual lifetimes. Yet although a growing body of longitudinal research links mobility decision-making to subsequent moving behaviour,...journal article 2011

Reuschke, D. (author), Van Ham, M. (author)Based on the notion that entrepreneurship is a ‘local event’, the literature argues that selfemployed workers and entrepreneurs are ‘rooted’ in place. This paper tests the ‘residential rootedness’-hypothesis of self-employment by examining for Germany and the UK whether the self-employed are less likely to move or migrate than employees. Using...journal article 2011

Clark, W.A.V. (author), Van Ham, M. (author), Coulter, R. (author)The research reported in this paper examines the nature and extent of socio-spatial mobility in the United Kingdom. In contrast with previous studies, we do not only investigate who moves out of deprived neighbourhoods, but our models cover the entire spectrum of neighbourhoods and provide a more complete interpretation of the process of...journal article 2011

Stromgren, M. (author), Tammaru, T. (author), Van Ham, M. (author), Marcinzak, S. (author), Stjernstrom, O. (author), Lindgren, U. (author)In addition to neighbourhoods of residence, family and places of work play important roles in producing and reproducing ethnic segregation. Therefore, recent research on ethnic segregation and contact is increasingly turning its attention from residential areas towards other important domains of daily interethnic contact. The key innovation of...journal article 2011

Coulter, R. (author), Van Ham, M. (author), Feijten, P. (author)Residential mobility decisions are known to be made at the household level. However, most empirical analyses of residential mobility relate moving behaviour to the housing and neighbourhood satisfaction and pre-move thoughts of individuals.

Helderman, A.C. (author), Mulder, C.H. (author), Van Ham, M. (author)In most western countries, homeowners are much less likely to change residence than renters are. In the last few decades, the rise in home ownership in the Netherlands has been spectacular. This would imply that the population has become less mobile, which has consequences for the functioning of the housing market – at least, if the relationship...journal article 2004
