  • Title: Changing age-selective gross migration streams and turnaround in the Federal Republic of Germany.
    Author: Kontuly T, Vogelsang R.
    Journal: Geogr Perspect; 1988; (61):30-42. PubMed ID: 12343074.
    Abstract:
    "Age-specific migration changes between 1977 and 1980 reveal several modifications in the pattern of population redistribution in the Federal Republic and suggest a major alteration of the West German internal migration system. In 1980, both the 30 to 49...and the 50+ year olds move (in the net) out of densely populated regions and into sparsely populated areas. A net out-migration occurs from the large, densely populated urban regions with strong and contemporary economic bases as well as from areas with structural economic problems. Densely populated regions lose more migrants while sparsely populated areas retain additional potential movers. Diverse explanations are suggested for these age-selective migration changes."
