_Notes:_ Conditional on migration history, R-to-R denotes rural to rural migration, R-to-U denotes rural to urban migration, U-to-R denotes urban to rural migration, and U-to-U denotes urban to urban migration. All variables are averages in current USD. The construction of the measures of household consumption, income, and wealth is discussed in Section 2, with further details in the online appendix.
