Is there any meaningful destination ahead of them? On the surface, their social and legal precarity is hard to reconcile with future aspirations, let alone anticipations. However, the alluring vision of a future “good life”, which informed their migration pathways, may survive the clash between the linear, accelerated time of migration and the circular, static time of asylum. As my ethnography in a reception centre of Northern Italy shows, meaningful <i>traces of the future</i> emerge across the residents' fragmented narratives, practices, and material cultures. These are multi-sensory signals about the possibility of a certain future, and assertions about its moral worth. Unveiling them casts light on the subjective understanding of the future on multiple scales, as an aspired gendered transition to autonomy and adulthood. It also shows that anticipation matters, even when it only draws on an implicit register of emotions, atmospheres, and daily routines. It is a way of preparing oneself for an unpredictable future – and of coping and making sense of the suspended temporality of asylum.</p>","PeriodicalId":48067,"journal":{"name":"Population Space and Place","volume":"32 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/psp.70341","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148617206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find that those who never made an interstate move comprised 75% of the total population of this age cohort. This percentage varies by year of age but never falls below 62%, even for those who were teenagers or young adults in 2001.

This gap is further compounded by challenges related to data availability and endogeneity in econometric studies. To address these issues, we analyse a county-level panel dataset covering the period 2002–2022 for Germany. Our methodology incorporates spatial econometric techniques to account for unobserved heterogeneity and spatial spillover thereby mitigating potential bias. We carefully address remaining endogeneity concerns and conduct extensive robustness checks. Our findings indicate that new housing construction and educational attainment exert significant influences on the share of the population aged 65 and over, primarily through local, own-county effects, whereas commuting flows operate mainly as cross-county spatial spillovers.

This paper examines how and why this shift occurs by conceptualising place not as a container of destination attributes, but as an evaluative and relational construct assembled under conditions of uncertainty. Drawing on qualitative interviews with Chinese postgraduate students and faculty at Singaporean public universities, we develop a five-dimensional geographical framework comprising physical, cultural, economic, linguistic, and symbolic dimensions to analyse how students bundle, rank, and recalibrate criteria such as safety, proximity, prestige, and future mobility. The findings show that certain dimensions, particularly geopolitical predictability and visa feasibility, function as hard constraints that delimit viable destinations. Within this narrowed field, Singapore is interpreted as simultaneously proximate and globally connected, culturally resonant yet English-medium, and politically stable without demanding alignment. Its structured neutrality and governance predictability emerge as key mobility resources in students’ risk calculations. By foregrounding students as active geographical interpreters, the study extends place-based approaches to international student mobility beyond descriptive push–pull models. It demonstrates how ‘good place’ is relationally produced and recalibrated across life trajectories and shifting geopolitical landscapes.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48067,"journal":{"name":"Population Space and Place","volume":"32 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148616510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These communities can prevent isolation and strengthen social connections during a life stage when networks often shrink. Studies, however, have given limited attention to examining how these communities challenge ageism—a pervasive, but often overlooked, form of inequality. To address this issue, we use data from Gransnet, a popular social networking site for older adults that was created in the United Kingdom in 2011. We conducted thematic and discourse analyses of 110 thread posts and more than 5000 comments made in the site's ‘Everyday Ageism’ discussion forum. Analyses revealed that participants challenged ageism in three ways. First, they legitimized older adults' knowledge through the exchange of support among age peers. Second, they asserted older adults' value by identifying ways they contribute to broader society. Third, they promoted a critique of ageism and shared strategies for navigating it. Our study underscores the importance of considering the broader system of age inequality in which online communities for older adults are located. It shapes the social relationships that emerge in these communities and the content of the interactions that sustain them—which, in turn, can challenge ageism both in and outside digital spaces.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48067,"journal":{"name":"Population Space and Place","volume":"32 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148616129","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Employing network analysis and Poisson Pseudo Maximum Likelihood (PPML) gravity models, we identify persistent core-periphery hierarchies, with Western and Northern European nations acting as dominant hubs. The analysis identifies key mobility hubs, discerns the primary corridors of movement and quantifies the economic, institutional, cultural and geographical factors associated with these patterns. Four theoretical lenses—world-systems, human capital, acculturation and aspirational—frame the interpretation. The results indicate that economic disparities, educational quality and trade and knowledge cooperation are associated with stronger student flows. Cultural-linguistic proximity and existing diasporas are also linked to mobility patterns, while symbolic prestige and institutional reputation accompany the attractiveness of core destinations. The overall network topology remains broadly stable across both periods, with geopolitical shocks absorbed through a reweighting of bilateral flows rather than structural change. A UK-specific event-study nevertheless identifies substantial inbound declines aligned with the 2016 referendum for PhD flows and with the 2021 EU/EEA fee-status change for non-PhD flows, indicating that aggregate stability coexists with significant country-level adjustment.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48067,"journal":{"name":"Population Space and Place","volume":"32 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148616128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous migration modelling has been done in a black-box manner. Only the overall performance of a migration model is evaluated, while the contributions of specific errors remain unclear. There are at least four modelling errors: errors caused by missing any significant factors of migration, incorrect model form, the wrong assumption of a random process and the random process. These four errors are mixed, and it is hard to identify each error clearly in empirical models. They affect accurate analyses of the migration process with biased parameter estimates and large modelling errors, reducing the applicability of migration models. This research uses a known migration model to generate simulated migration data to assess the first, third and fourth modelling errors. Hundred sets of simulations are conducted. If a migration model misses an explanatory variable (model LMb) or a model with a wrong random process (model PM) is used, it is found that the model performance is significantly different from that of the correct model. The impact on estimated parameters is more complex. The results confirm concerns about modelling errors in previous studies, such as missing an important variable and using the wrong random process.

Using longitudinal data from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging, our findings showed the multidimensional nature of residential mobility in mid- to later life. Needs-related factors, including poorer oral health, nutritional vulnerability, indicators of psychological and cognitive strain, greater reliance on non-professional support, and dissatisfaction with home, were associated with higher odds of moving.

Opportunity structures and contextual constraints, including dwelling type, non-urban residence, and province of residence, also played an important role, highlighting the relevance of broader place-based factors. In addition, prior relocation and becoming unpartnered were associated with greater odds of subsequent mobility.

We apply fixed-effects Poisson regression models to examine how out-migration varies across education levels in response to development in the health, education and wealth domains, and how the relationship varies by city sizes. Results show that out-migration rises with development but is strongly stratified by education. The secondary-educated are the most responsive group, displaying the steepest increases in migration, particularly at mid-levels of development and especially with rising wealth. The least educated group remains constrained by limited resources, while university graduates respond more slowly but in a highly selective manner, especially to local educational expansion. Developmental progress increases out-migration in all city tiers of the urban hierarchy, with secondary cities showing consistently higher out-migration for the highly educated.
