N2  - According to the most recent census data, nearly eleven million children in the United States annually change their residence. Residential relocation can be a severely disruptive event for adults, but little is known about its effects on children. After a brief sketch of the dimensions and background of the problem, this article reviews the extant literature to examine whether and how the mobility of children is related to their academic behavior, social relations, and general well-being. The importance of several contextual factors is noted. Finally, limitations of research and the implications for planning are discussed.<p />
