First, the propensity of men and women to engage in interregional migr
ation within the Pakistani and West Indian populations in England and
Wales is examined for differentials, and these propensities are compar
ed with those derived from a white, control population. Second, the ma
in spatial flows of long-distance gender-specific migration are descri
bed. Third, the rewards which different groups derive from internal mi
gration are considered and any gender discrepancies are highlighted. L
ast, the conjunction of 'race', gender, marital status, and migration
is investigated to see whether certain subgroups suffer a treble jeopa
rdy and whether this is exacerbated or alleviated by different gender
roles within the Afro-Caribbean and Pakistani populations.
