Abstract:Urging migrant workers to buy houses in the city is an important way to accelerate the citizenization of the migrant agricultural population, and the house purchase behavior of the new-generation migrant workers is influenced by the accumulation of their family wealth in their early years. Taking life experience approach, this paper studies the house purchase behavior of the new-generation migrant workers in S village and finds that the new-generation migrant workers solve their housing problems mainly in three ways: purchasing houses in the city after working a few years in the city, purchasing houses back in their home town, and building houses in the country. The differentiation of the new-generation migrant workers’ integration into the city through house purchase is due to the difference of their inherence accumulation. On the one hand, the disparity of their parental family, the wealth accumulation in their early days, occupational difference of the new-generation migrant workers, difference in wealth inheritance, and the impact of major events in their life have a lasting effect on the new-generation migrant workers’ integration ability through house purchase. On the other hand, the advantages accumulated in the early years are strengthened in the integration process, while unfortunate events affect their integration through house purchase. Under the mechanism of inheritance accumulation, the new-generation migrant workers construct the upward mobility model, the transitional mobility model and the rural-urban mobility model. To promote the new-type urbanization strategy and rural revitalization, it is necessary to comprehensively and systematically improve the urbanization capacity of the new-generation migrant workers, to guide them to face up to the differences in current social integration, and to provide differentiated support based on different integration modes.
