Abstract

This essay analyses residential mobility considering aspirations and desires to migrate. Considering the aspiration for migration as a methodology for grasping prevents before mobility, one must take into consideration that it is merged with political, economic, cultural, and social factors. Thus, because of the diversity of relations between migrants and migration, the decision to migrate and the action itself, there are shades of meaning that theories often neglect. We use primary data from the Metropolitan Region of Vitória (MRV) to achieve this purpose. Our main goal is to understand the relationships between family, household, and residential mobility in the metropolitan regions of Brazil. The results show that aspirations for residential mobility could also be interpreted as aspirations for social mobility. This demonstrates the relevance of mobility as a strategy for social reproduction in large urban agglomerations.

Keywords: Aspiration; Migration; Residential mobility; Metropolitan region.
