Distance people move Most migrants move a short distance Long distance international migrants head for major centers of economic activity Most migrations proceed in steps

The reasons people move Most people migrate for economic reasons Cultural and environmental factors also induce migration, although not as frequently as economic factors Every migration generates a return or counter migration

Characteristics of migrants Most long-distance migrants are male (But females are more migratory) Most long-distance migrants are adult individuals rather than families with children Urban residents are less migratory than inhabitants of rural areas
