“…In this study, we incorporate social housing, migrant networks, employment opportunities and urban services. These dimensions are often found to be of importance in qualitative literature (Hanhörster & Wessendorf, 2020; Kurtenbach, 2017; Schillebeeckx, 2019).…”

“…The ideas of the Chicago School have been particularly valuable in (amongst others) emphasizing the spatial context of social processes. This has inspired many scholars to theorize about the ‘resourcefulness’ of cities for arriving migrants (Cohen et al, 2022; Hanhörster & Wessendorf, 2020; Kurtenbach, 2017; Massey & Denton, 1985; Schillebeeckx, 2019; Wessendorf, 2018).…”

Although traditional migration research focuses predominantly on large cities as ports of entry for migrants, increasingly more migrants start in smaller cities and rural areas. These mobility patterns give access to specific arrival infrastructures with differentiated and often unequal opportunities. Current research has addressed the multiplicity and political nature of arrival infrastructures, but what happens after arrival remains a black box. By building on micro register data, this study employs a longitudinal approach to trace the trajectories of EU labour migrants in the Netherlands across time and space. Our findings indicate that among those who choose to remain in the Netherlands, internal migration is largely characterized by geographical immobility. When people did move to a different type of residential location, it was often to more urbanized places. As mostly migrants with a higher income made these moves, this strengthened the dualization of more precarious migrants in rural areas and more well‐off migrants in larger cities.
