Extract: Most changes in the size and composition of a population occur because of the movement of residents rather than birth and death rates. Migrants from metro areas, who have provided much of the growth in rural areas since the 1970's, have tended to move to nonmetro counties that ranked high in amenities. Job-related reasons were less important to these new residents. Knowing the causes of nonmetro growth is important because today's mobile society makes planning by small communities difficult. This report assesses migration to nonmetro counties during 1975-80, whether the migrants came from metro or other nonmetro areas, and to what region they were most likely to move.
