Abstract

Este trabajo estima el diferencial de ingresos entre migrantes y locales en la ciudad de Bogotá, Colombia. Usando métodos de emparejamiento, los resultados indican que los inmigrantes obtienen, en promedio, el mismo ingreso que los nativos con similar edad, género, escolaridad y nivel educativo. Bajo el modelo propuesto para explicar los diferenciales de salarios entre los grupos de población, se concluye que el aumento de inmigrantes a la ciudad, independiente de su nivel de calificación, solo aumenta la oferta de empleo y no influye en variaciones de ingresos por cuenta de la entrada de inmigrantes a la ciudad.
