Estimates report coefficients of the interaction term of Equations (2) and (3). Sample used in this analysis is limited to non-citizen immigrants between ages 18 and 64 with education level less than high school. Regressions are adjusted using indictors for state, year, age, age squared, gender, marital status and two state-level variables. Regressions are weighted by the ACS sample weights. All standard errors (parentheses) are clustered on current-state level for in-migration equations and origin-state level for out-migration equations.
