If a region has very high gross migration but zero net migration, which statement is correct?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Arrivals and departures may be equal

Gross migration describes the total movement into and out of a region. Net migration is the difference between in-migration and out-migration. Therefore, a region can have very high movement while its net migration is zero if the two flows are equal.

For example, if 100,000 people arrive and 100,000 leave, gross migration is very high, but net migration is \(100000-100000=0\). The region has experienced substantial movement, yet the flows have not changed its population overall. Thus arrivals and departures may be equal, making option A correct. Zero net migration does not mean that nobody moved.
