Geographical constraints and spatial mobility. The case of two-earner households

We test a number of hypotheses derived from search theory about spatial job and residential moving behaviour of two-earner households using data for Denmark. In line with theory, we demonstrate that residential mobility depends positively on the commuting distance of both spouses, but negatively on the distance between workplaces. Furthermore, job mobility depends positively on the workers commuting distance, negatively on the spouses commuting distance and positively on the distance between workplaces.
