A city has natural change of -6000 and net migration of +6000. What is the total population change?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: No net change

Total population change combines natural change with net migration. A negative natural change means that births and deaths alone reduce the population. Positive net migration can offset that reduction. Adding the two signed quantities, rather than adding their absolute sizes, gives the net result.

Here, total change is \(-6000+6000=0\). The gain from net migration exactly balances the natural loss, so there is no net numerical change in the population. Therefore, option C is correct. This does not mean that no people moved or that the population’s composition stayed identical; it means only that the final total is unchanged.
