If out-migration is greater than in-migration, what does net migration indicate for a region?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Population loss

Direct answer: B, population loss. Net migration is calculated as in-migration minus out-migration. When more people leave a region than enter it, the result is less than zero, so the region has negative net migration. Negative net migration indicates a loss of population through movement, even though births and deaths may affect the total population separately. A is the opposite situation and would occur when in-migration is greater than out-migration. C refers to natural increase, which is the difference between births and deaths and does not describe migration. D is also unrelated because the number of people leaving does not itself show that the birth rate has risen. For example, if 800 people leave and 300 enter, net migration is 300 − 800 = −500. Memory cue: more leaving than entering gives a minus sign and a population loss.
