... to Table 5, the regression results of the first stage of the CMP method show that the impact of the establishment of health records on the social integration of rural mobile population at the district and county level is statistically significant at the 1% level, which is consistent with the expectation, indicating that the instrumental variable satisfies the correlation condition. Further, the regression results of the second stage show that the establishment of health records has a statistically significant positive effect on the social integration of migrant peasant workers at the 5% level, after controlling for possible endogeneity bias, again validating the finding that the use of basic public health services contributes to the social integration of migrant peasant workers. ...Similar publications

... This finding aligns with the existing literature [17,26,47]. With the rise in residents' income levels, non-economic factors such as fundamental public health services, education, climate change, and urban environmental quality have emerged as pivotal determinants influencing migrants' decisions regarding their place of residence [10,48,49]. As the National Hygienic City campaigns continue to advance urban environment and infrastructure in the future [42], it is anticipated that this will further facilitate the process of migrant citizenization, which is a pivotal factor for the sustainable development of a city. ...
The number of internal migrants in China reached 376 million in 2020, accounting for about one-fourth of the total population. Therefore, promoting their settlement in cities and integration into urban life is crucial for both sustainability and for their well-being. Drawing on data from the 2014–2018 China Migrants Dynamic Survey and taking the “Hygienic Cities Initiative” as a quasi-experiment, this research study analyzes the influence of improving the urban environment quality on migrants’ settlement intentions within a difference-in-difference (DID) framework. The study findings indicate that the creation of “Hygienic Cities” demonstrates a significant positive effect on migrants’ settlement intentions, thereby leading to a 4.57% increase. Further analysis highlights that the creation of “Hygienic Cities” primarily affects migrants’ settlement intentions by (1) improving local air quality and (2) increasing the sanitation of the urban environment. In addition to this, the effect of “Hygienic Cities” on migrants’ settlement intentions is stronger for migrants with higher education and income levels, shorter migration experience, unmarried males, and employers or self-employed individuals. This research article confirms that the urban residential environment has become a critical factor influencing Chinese migrants’ settlement intentions. As a result, further attention to environmental protection and improvements in urban environmental sanitation is crucial in city management for attracting talent and investments to cities, but such initiatives may also lead to potential gender imbalance in cities.
