Recent Mexican data sources in the study of international migration
Seminar:
The 2013 High-level Dialogue on International Migration and Development: Implications for data collection
27 February 2013, United Nations, New York
Purpose
• “The Seminar also provides a platform for sharing country experiences in collecting migration statistics and in using migration data to inform policy makers”.
BACKGROUND
• Undocumented flow of Mexican nationals both in and out of the country:– Emigrants, mostly to the USA and Canada,
reluctant to take part in surveys and censuses in receiving countries.
– Immigrants, mostly return migrants and their foreign-born children. Growing proportion of American and Canadian retirees.
Layout
• ENOE, Mexico’s quarterly labour force survey
• 2010 Population and Housing Census
ENOE, MEXICO'S QUARTERLY LABOUR FORCE SURVEY
ENOE
One of the longest-running statistical projects in the country. • Main purpose, to produce national and state-
level quarterly unemployment rates. – Information collected continuously over three-month
periods.– Sample size fixed at 120,060 dwellings every
quarter.– New entries are randomly selected with unequal
probabilities from stratified sampling frame.
Rotation pattern
• Each quarter, 20% of households leave sample after completing five-interview tour,
• replaced by new (semi-)panel with same size,• remains in sample for five consecutive rounds of
interviews, one quarter apart. • Hence, 80% quarter-to-quarter sample overlap.• Useful in determining quarterly change patterns in
– household composition, – occupational status of individuals,– etc.
Common sample in two successive quarters due to ENOE's Rotation Pattern
Rotation pattern as means to gauge change
