People on the move: trends and prospects in District migration flows

Glenn H. Miller

Economic Review, 1994, vol. 79, issue Q III, 39-54

Abstract: Since the early 1970s, the states of the Tenth Federal Reserve District have experienced wide swings in economic activity and interstate migration. The swings in migration not only reflect the region's economic performance but also have important consequences for future economic activity.> Miller discusses recent trends and prospects for migration into and out of the district. He reviews trends in net migration flows and shows how they correspond with swings in district economic performance. Next, he examines the composition of migrant flows and indicates that a significant brain drain occurred from much of the district in the late 1980s. Finally, he considers the migration outlook for the district.
