Net international migration

Term · Economic statistics · MLC-T-ECS-001251

Any change of residence across the borders of the United States (50 states and District of Columbia). The estimates of net international migration are made up of four sub-components:

• Net international migration of the foreign born;

• Net migration between the United States and Puerto Rico;

• Net migration of natives to and from the United States; and

• Net movement of the Armed Forces population between the United States and overseas. The international migration rate expresses net international migration during a specified time period as a proportion of an area's population at the midpoint of the time period. Rates are expressed per 1,000 population.
