Notes:

a

Models were estimated with maximum-likelihood Heckman selection using the following variables in the selection equation: race/ethnicity/nativity, family income, education, homeowner, number of children, age, age squared, sex, marital status, persons per room, tract of origin racial composition, and metropolitan area racial composition.

b

Models 2-4 include dummy variables for metropolitan areas of destination.
