1821 Guadalajara, Mexico exhibited surprising mobility within its
population. Using data from the back-to-back censuses of 1821 and
1822, this study argues that mobility affected almost every
individual who lived in Guadalajara during that time period. The
methodology used traces individuals who persisted from one year to
the next to determine overall rates of mobility. An analysis of
short-term stability and change within this set of historically
identifiable individuals, families and households reveals a process
of mobility that not only has been neglected by studies based on
aggregate data, but that is often at variance with the findings of
those studies. The evidence shows that a significant portion of the
extensive movement of individuals to and from the wards is short
term and often cyclical, rather than long term and permanent.
Additionally, data sets from 1811-1813 and 1839-1842 are used as
"control groups" to conclude that the mobility in 1821-1822 was not
a unique historical event based on circumstances, but an
overarching trend throughout the nineteenth century.
