<p>This study aimed to ascertain the effects of migration on household income in the context of Bangladesh. Cumilla, Faridpur, and Jashore districts were randomly selected from Bangladesh’s 27 most emigrated-from districts. A household survey was conducted from May 15 to June 15, 2023, using a questionnaire that had been pretested in a pilot survey. A total of 1,213 household data were collected from the study areas, using a proportionate random sampling technique. Logit regression models were used to examine the effects of migration and international migration. The treatment group comprised households with a migrant member, while the control group comprised households with no migrant members. The findings suggest that migration enhances a household’s likelihood of securing a position above the national average household income (Marginal Effect: 0.370***). In addition, international migration positively contributes to household income uplifting (Marginal Effect: 0.379***). Additionally, geographic position matters for household income. Cumilla is geographically in a better position for income than other districts. The study recommends safeguarding household income in the long run; households should emphasize human capital formation through education, skill development, and health to encourage skilled labor migration to better destinations. Additionally, to curb income deviation among districts, income opportunities should be created through the developing in-situ livelihood options, through establishing socio-economic infrastructures, agriculture-based industries, marketing channels, and tourist spots. The study contributed to the literature by considering geographic variation with a considerable number of households from the Bangladesh perspective. Future research options are available to cover larger geographic settings using panel data.</p>
