An interesting yet largely unstudied question regarding labour migration behaviour and
residence duration is whether migration becomes more or less likely over time. This
paper analyses the determinants of residence duration for Finnish graduates. Our results
affirm the importance of cumulative inertia as a determinant of migration. The longer a
person stays in a region, the smaller are the hazard rates of migration. However, for
those graduates who moved to a new region during their year of graduation, the
propensity for repeat migration is particularly high during their first three years of
residence.
