Abstract
This paper compares regional patterns of leaving home in Spain during the 1970s and 1980s based on analysis of the 1991 Spanish Sociodemographic Survey. The purpose of this analysis is to demonstrate that while nationally Spain is representative of a southern European pattern of leaving home, (i.e. relatively late and closely associated with partnership formation), there is considerable regional variation in timing, incidence and initial destinations on leaving home. These differences are explored using hazard rates of leaving home by destination and birth cohort for 11 Spanish regions. In regions with distinctive patterns which diverge considerably from the Spanish norm, leaving home is closely associated with historical patterns of family and household formation, as identified by family historians. Moreover, the contribution of high rates of unemployment and housing prices, which sociologists have established as the major cause of recent delays in leaving home, varies between these region-specific family systems.
