This paper assesses livelihood status of permanent migrants resident in the Obuasi Municipality who hail from the northern parts of Ghana. The findings show no significant differences between migrants and indigenes in ownership of assets
and consumer durable goods and housing quality. However, the indigenes earn relatively higher than the migrants due to access to various forms of capital and the influence of institutional structures and processes. But to the migrants, their livelihood status
has improved since they have built houses, educated their children, remitted relations at home and have acquired some consumer durable goods. Improvement in the livelihood status of migrants could induce further north–south migration
