About this series

Arrivals minus departures, people per year. The world is ~0 by construction. The series is noisy and often revised.

Indicator definition

Net migration (difference between arrivals and departures). Does not split refugees, seasonal workers, and permanent residents. Read with Population and Population growth.

How to read the data

The US stays a large net receiver. Poland and Germany jump year to year — 2025 is strongly negative for both in this copy. Do not hang a story on one year; use Fertility for the slow force.
