“…In this context, migrations not only increase the population of the region but also sometimes have a positive effect on innovation. This situation directly affects the growth potential of regions and is one of the factors recently emphasized in the relationship migration has with interregional imbalance (Zhao & Li, 2020;Freeman, 1997). Migrants consisting primarily of a qualified workforce is found to directly increase innovation (Mare et al, 2011).…”

Internal migrations, which involve population movements within the borders of a country for economic, political or social reasons, is seen as both a cause and a result of regional imbalances. In this framework, the effect increasing internal migrations have on developed and underdeveloped regions may differ through the effect of the different socio-cultural and economic conditions between regions. The aspect of imbalance is directly related to the extent to which migration affects parameters such as wage, production, consumption, human capital levels, entrepreneurial migration, unemployment, and household income in regions with different stages of development. This study analyzes the effect internal migration has on regional imbalances in Turkey’s NUTS-2 regions during 2008-2019 using the bootstrap quantile regression method. According to the analysis findings, internal migration increases growth in all NUTS-2 regions, but this effect is stronger at higher income levels. In this context, as a region’s income levels increase, the effect of net migration on growth also increases. When considering the migration direction to be from low-income regions to high-income regions, internal migration has been found to increase interregional disintegration in Turkey.

“…They share a common characteristic, that is, they usually take place between places that are not distant, between neighbouring units. However, according to [32], internal migration not only increases the region's population, but young people's enthusiasm, self-fulfilment, risk-taking and entrepreneurship will drive innovation and development. At the same time, such migration will bring racial and cultural diversity to cities, fostering integration, while also providing the right conditions for innovation.…”

Migration represents a process where people leave their homes for various reasons. The aim of the article is to evaluate the level and development of migration in Slovakia and to identify its causes in the Gemer region, which is among the least economically productive regions of Slovakia. We quantified the development and level of migration based on secondary data through selected analytical indicators of migration. We determined the motivations of the residents of the Gemer region to migrate using a questionnaire survey. Until 2004, Slovakia was an emigration country, but in recent years it has turned into a destination country. However, the situation is not the same for all regions of the country. A negative migration balance persists in the Gemer region, although restrictions related to the coronavirus pandemic have slowed this trend. We found that up to 21 % of respondents from the region migrate for work. Up to 45 % of respondents want to move out of the region, while in 64 % of cases the migration is motivated by economic reasons. The opinion on migration is influenced by the gender of the respondent but is not related to the level of education achieved.

“…This finding is supported by Liao et al [23], who found that work-seeking domestic migration and fertility decisions interplay within the process of economic development, and that migration and fertility rates are higher in less-developed areas than in areas with advanced economies. Domestic migration also promotes regional innovation [24]. Matanle [25] pointed out that the industrialization and urbanization that occurred in Japan throughout the post-World War II era was accompanied by rapid economic growth.…”

Long-Term Impact of Interregional Migrants on Population Prediction

Japan is becoming depopulated, with declining fertility rates and massive urban agglomeration due to emigrations from rural areas, which results in rural–urban disparities. As demographic and social divisions between rural and urban areas increase, maintenance of infrastructure and social facilities becomes much more difficult. For social and demographic sustainability, accurate predictions of long-term population distributions are needed. This study improves the Cohort Component Analysis (CCA) into two aspects of “dependent structure” in the model system. The migration sub-model is expanded to include related structures between available job opportunities and the available workforce in each region, which are specified using the spatial autoregressive model. The advantage of the improved CCA to provides rational future projections by considering the longitudinal changes in the spatial distribution of the workforce. The simulation of the proposed model gives an alternative long-term impact of population distribution in Japan, which is compared with the conventional CCA. The results show that the future Japanese populations will become more concentrated in urban areas, with a lower fertility rate. Furthermore, the manufacturing employees will be attracted to metropolitan areas or to regions with industrial zones, and that the number of retailers will undergo changes over time, even in urbanized areas.
