Human migration is the movement of people from one place to another, often involving a change of residence, in search of better opportunities, refuge, or a better quality of life.

Migrants are typically identified in the census by their place of birth, previous residence, or duration of stay in the current location.

There are three main factors that contribute to population change: fertility, mortality, and migration.

One of the major reasons for female migration is marriage, often involving a move to a spouse's place of residence or family.

One of the prominent reasons for male migration in both rural and urban areas is employment, often driven by a lack of job opportunities in their current location or a desire for better job prospects.
