Population Mobility

Population mobility refers to the movement of people from one location to another, which can occur for various reasons, such as economic opportunities, education, or fleeing conflict. In the context of population cartography, these movements are visually represented on maps, showing trends and patterns in how populations shift geographically over time. This information helps researchers, policymakers, and planners understand migration flows and their impacts on regions, facilitating better decision-making regarding resources, infrastructure, and community services. Essentially, it illustrates how and why people relocate, providing valuable insights into societal changes.
