Increased migration to the sunbelt and the metropolitan-nonmetropolitan "turnaround" represent departures from long-standing redistribution trends. Although these patterns have been examined from a number of perspectives, their consequences for individual metropolitan areas have not yet been brought to light. In the present study, stream-disaggregated data for the late 1950s and late 1960s are employed to assess the impact of recent migration on the sizes and compositions of white populations in thirty-one large metropolitan areas. Most large northern SMSAs have been experiencing the "new" migration patterns since the late 1950s. They have incurred net out-movements of whites to both metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas. In their exchanges with nonmetropolitan areas, however, they have managed to retain greater numbers of college graduates and professional workers. Southern and western SMSAs did not sustain losses to nonmetropolitan areas during either period. They did appear to gain both total and high status population as a result of interregional metropolitan redistribution.
向阳光地带的移民增加以及大都市与非大都市之间的“逆转”代表了与长期再分配趋势的背离。尽管这些模式已从多个角度进行了研究，但其对各个大都市地区的影响尚未明朗。在本研究中，使用了20世纪50年代末和60年代末按流向分类的数据，以评估近期移民对31个大型大都市地区白人人口规模和构成的影响。自20世纪50年代末以来，大多数北方大型标准都市统计区都经历了“新”的移民模式。它们出现了白人向大都市和非大都市地区的净迁出。然而，在与非大都市地区的交流中，它们设法留住了更多的大学毕业生和专业工人。在这两个时期，南方和西方的标准都市统计区都没有出现向非大都市地区的人口流失。由于大都市地区之间的区域再分配，它们似乎在总人口和高地位人口方面都有所增加。
