Abstract
⺠The concept of 'householding' bridges the migrant vs. stayer divide in migration research. ⺠Relations of relative seniority capture intra-household dynamics better than chronological age. ⺠Relations of relative seniority are gendered. ⺠Households are in flux due to life-cycle related events and processes of rural transformation. ⺠Young women are most inclined to migrate as well as most inclined to stay in rural Lao households.
