| Summary: | Mexican Migration Project (MMP) is a yearly study of
Mexican migrants that randomly samples households in communities
throughout Mexico. After gathering social, demographic, and economic
information on the household and its members, interviewers collect
basic information on each person's first and last trip to the United
States. From household heads, they compile a year-by-year history of
United States migration and collect information about the last trip
northward, focusing on employment, earnings, and use of United States
social services. |
