The border municipalities affected by the negative migration trends recorded a decline in the number of inhabitants in the period or at least one of the decades.
The largest number of the municipalities has a migration balance rate of -5 to -1.

In the last three intercensal periods most immigrants have been placed in the border municipalities of Vojvodina and Western Serbia.
The emigration rates in almost all municipalities exceeded the annual rates of immigration, primarily in the southwestern and southeastern part of Serbia, and then in other parts.
Most migrants within the borders of the same municipality were recorded in the least developed border municipalities, which had the smallest share of immigrants from other areas.
In the period the proportion of immigrants from other municipalities of the same and other areas increased in all border municipalities.
In the last period, the share of immigrants from the former Yugoslavia significantly decreased compared to the previous period.
The share of immigrants from other foreign countries is less than 10% in almost all municipalities, and in most less than 5%.

4. According to the period, economic factors had the dominant influence of on migratory movements, as well as "non-economic" especially in the second period.
In the last period there a balancing of opposite directions of migration was recorded.
A negative migration balance is still present in the border municipalities, and has evened once different tendencies among some border municipalities.
