Abstract: We construct a quantitative model to simulate the impacts of climate change on U.S. domestic migration patterns. The model combines a strategy for estimating household demand for climate amenities in the presence of migration frictions with a simple, equilibrium framework for modeling counterfactual migration responses and their implications for regional welfare, prices and populations. Our estimates suggest that migration frictions exert an important influence on equilibrium outcomes, limiting adaptation to climate through relocation and resulting in a regional pattern of winners and losers.
