New Mexican Migrant data

Update of our Mexican work life paper on the way!

We’re pleased to let you know that we have released our most current database: MMP150.  The MMP150 database consists of 150 communities, which includes the original 143 communities plus 7 new additional communities: 4 from the state of Jalisco and 3 from the state of Puebla.  MMP150 – PERS file provides individual level data for 157,879 persons;  the MMP150 – MIG file provides detailed information about 8,052 heads of households with migration experience to the U.S; and the MMP150 – HOUSE file provides information about 24,989 households.   The COMMUN file now provides homicide rates at the municipio level from 1990 to 2013.

 MMP150 databases are available in SAS, Stata, SPSS, and also on CSV. To access these datasets, please visit the OPR’s archive webpage.  We will be updating both the NATLYEAR and NATLHIST files over the summer.
