What is the movement of people out of a region called?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Emigration

The movement of people out of their country or region of origin is called emigration. The word is used from the viewpoint of the place that people leave. For example, if residents leave Region X to settle elsewhere, their movement is emigration for Region X. It can reduce the population of the origin area and may also change its age or working-population structure.

Thus option C, emigration, is correct. Immigration has the opposite viewpoint: it means entering a new country or region. Population growth is a change in the number of people and is not itself a name for outward movement. Natural increase refers to births minus deaths, so it does not describe migration. Remembering the direction is useful: emigration means exiting, while immigration means entering.
