ABSTRACT
United States findings (for example, Yu et al. 1993). The ability of married women migrants to London and the South East to make good the immediate negative effects of migration suggests that this is a labour market effect depending on the pattern of jobs available to women in London, rather than a direct outcome of migration. On the other hand, there are stark contrasts between women local to London and inward migrants, suggesting an important selectivity effect, that migration filters in potentially mobile women as much as, if not more than, men.
