There are three main reasons for migration that are economic, political and environmental influences. Economic reasons include looking for better jobs and opportunities. Political reasons include the war inside the country and governmental regulations. Environmental reasons include the desired life style that are the most prevalent in places with natural amenities. Interregional migration in large states like US, Russia, Canada, China, and Brazil occurs mainly for economic development. However based on the data from New Zealand above, it is indefinite that economic factors are always the primary causes of human migration.
