Via an analysis of original data on population mobility status, this paper explores if variation exists in the residence type of Mainlander soldiers after applying for household registration in the years between 1959 and 1968. First, the original data of immigrants/not reported and emigrants/not reported in population mobility status across the 21 prefectures and cities of Taiwan are collected. Second, the accumulated difference between the above-mentioned two categories in each prefecture or city is calculated and transformed into a ratio structure corresponding to the weighted distribution of the 21 prefectures and cities in Taiwan. Third, on the basis of“the difference between registered population and expected population”provided by Executive Yuan in 1976, a revised estimation of the number of Mainlander soldiers applying for household registration in each of the 21 prefectures and cities is projected and compared to the increase in registered Chuan-Tsun households for the same period. It is found that the supply of Chuan-Tsun households was much less than the number of Mainlander soldiers across all the 21 prefectures and cities. It reminds us that Chuan-Tsun, as a housing institution, could not accommodate the lodging demands of Mainlander soldiers and their family members. Future attention should be given to the fact that the majority of Mainlander soldiers were on their own infinding a solution to their housing problem after applying for household registration, as well as the consequences, such as a variation in residence type. |
