What is meant by in-migration?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: People entering and settling in a region

In-migration means movement of people into a particular region from another place, usually with the intention of living there. The word “in” indicates movement toward the region. If the number entering is greater than the number leaving, and births and deaths are unchanged, in-migration increases the region's population. People may move for work, education, safety, family reasons, or better services.

Thus, option B is correct: people enter and settle in a region. Option A describes out-migration, which is movement away. Options C and D are natural demographic changes, not migration, because they do not involve people changing their place of residence. In-migration concerns direction of movement, not birth or death rates.
