The migrants are special group, and make a major contribution to the development of China’s economic and social. In recent years, more and more researchers have paid attention to the residential problems of migrants. To understand the migrants’residential choice and its influencing factors and to provide better ideas and methods for relevant departments, in this paper, we will use the2013survey data of seven urban’s migrants in our country, using the theoretical perspective of social stratification to analysis the social stratification’s impact on miagrants’residential choice.The main content of this article is using multinomial Logit regression model and multiple linear regression models, large-scale survey data is used to study the social stratification’s impact on miagrants’residential choice. Miagrants’ residential choice is operation into three dimensions:a way of living, residential location and living area. The study found that there exist differences of occupational status, education level and income level among migrants, and these differences affect a significant role in the miagrants’ residential choice. First, the migrants’ family income per head is higher or the higher level of education, ther more likely to choose a better way of living, resident location is closer to the city, is more inclined to bigger housing area. Second, the professional status of migrants is higher, the more likely to choose a better way of living, and more likely to choose a larger living space.
