BRITO, Danyella Juliana  and  AMARAL E SILVA, Marcus Vinícius. DETERMINANTES DOS MOVIMENTOS PENDULARES NO BRASIL: UMA ANÁLISE ESPACIAL. Estud. econ. [online]. 2021, vol.38, n.76, pp.95-122. ISSN 2525-1295.

Decisions about where to live and work involve dilemmas between opportunities, wages, travel time and cost of living. The objective of this paper is to analyze which municipal factors are associated with the highest rates of commuting in Brazilian municipalities in 2010, understanding these movements as possibly spatially autocorrelated. For this purpose, techniques of spatial econometrics were used. Among the main findings is the need to consider spatial autocorrelation in the analysis of pendular mobility determinants. In addition, the results indicate that labor market and urban agglomeration variables are directly associated with greater inflows of commuters. On the other hand, the characteristics of urban infrastructure do not seem to explain commuting in the same way that it explains migratory attractiveness.

Keywords : labor market; commuting; spatial analysis.
