CHAPTER 3 MIGRATION Introduction Geographers document from where people migrate and to where they migrate. They also study reasons why people migrate. In the United states, the average family moves once every six years. Most people migrate in search of economic opportunity, cultural freedom, and environmental comfort. The difference between the number of immigrants and the member of emigrants is the net migration. Local diversity is the migration of people of similar cultural values. Migration is a form of relocation diffusion, but reasons for migrating can be gained from expansion diffusion. Case Study: Migration from Ukraine to Italy Legal and illegal immigrants have been pouring into Western Europe by the millions. Most of them come from Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe.
