On the road for work
Analysis on migratory farm workers that migrate every year in a seasonal pattern up and down the East Coast of the United States. It examines the mobility of the migratory workers, their yearly earnings, and the question of why some workers migrate while others stay at home. In the analysis four ethnic groups in fourteen East Coast states are distinguished: blacks, whites, Puerto Ricans, and Mexicans. The study reults in findings concerning the degree of mobility of the workers and the influence of ethnicity.
