タ　イ　ト　ル：Gender Differences in Mobility of Hispanic Immigrants

アブストラクト：The U.S. immigrant population is steadily increasing, and approximately
half of this population is Hispanic. This paper aims to understand the
mobility of Hispanic immigrants, particularly whether gender differences
exist in their mobility. Using National Household Travel Survey data for
2009, this paper finds that the gender difference in mobility is greater
among Hispanics, particularly for low-income Hispanic immigrants, than
for other populations. Hispanic female immigrants are substantially less
likely to be drivers than their male counterparts and females of other
race/ethnicity groups. Moreover, the probability of being a driver is
persistently low for Hispanic female immigrants even after years of
residing in the U.S., while driver status of females in other
race/ethnicity groups increases quickly as they stay longer in the U.S.
Hispanic female immigrants are likely not actively choosing to be
non-drivers; if they are drivers, they drive more than females of other
race/ethnicity groups. Although regression analysis does not prove
causal relationships between low-income status and driver status, there
are policy implications if barriers to becoming a driver limit training
or employment and contribute to low-income status. More detailed
analysis is anticipated to detail the mobility challenges Hispanic
female immigrants face.
