Explaining-Outmigration-Intentions
This study uses data from a recent Ipsos survey, Understanding Society: Wave 1 April 2021 2 , to explore the
determinants of outmigration intentions of rural residents. Results of empirical analysis show that the odds of a person
in the 18-24 age group liking to live in the city is 42 times higher than a person in the 25-34 age group, and 72,000
times higher than a person in the 50+ age category.
