Sažetak
Over the past decade, the countries of the European Union have
faced an increase in immigration flows from less developed and
politically stable countries. The movement of migrants created
new socio-economic challenges that affected their well-being.
Thus, it is fair to ask: what influences the income level of
migrants? The aim of the article is to study the influence of the
selected determinants on the probability of poverty among
migrants in the European Union. Using EU-SILC data for 2014 and
2018, we also explore possible changes in the strength of the
determinants of poverty, depending on the pre-crisis and post-crisis
periods associated with an increase in immigration. We report
that immigrant status expressed by the birth outside the EU or
holding other than EU citizenship increases the likelihood of
being poor. The applied logistic model show that migrant poverty
is associated with the level of education achieved, marital status,
occupation, and housing ownership. Using macroeconomic variables,
we find that the ratio of migrants to population, population
size, and social-democratic welfare regime reduce the likelihood
of poverty among migrants.
