    Methodological explanations

    Population migration is the movement of people (migrants) across the borders of certain regions with a change of residence.

    The number of people who arrived in the regions of the republic, as well as the number of departures from them, is determined as a result of the development of statistical arrival and departure coupons received from the Committee of the Migration Service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which are compiled during registration of the population at the place of permanent residence.

    In the current statistical accounting, the numbers of arrivals and departures are conditionally fixed, but we are talking about the numbers of arrivals and departures.

    The main indicators of migration are:

    • the number of arrivals;
    • the number of departures;
    • migration increase (or decrease), net migration, net migration.

    Migration intensity indicators characterize the frequency of cases of change of residence in the total population over a certain period. The most commonly used are general annual migration intensity rates per 1,000 population.
