The NLS as a whole, and particularly the Young Women's cohort, is found to provide thorough and current migration data. One possible fault is that intra-SMSA moves are not considered migration, and that the details of these moves are not asked for in the interviews. Analysis of thirteen individual migrators are included, as are copies of all interview questions relating to migration.
