Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner. This survey was designed to identify the mobility system of rural and urban residents of the Ilorin area and of those people who had left to seek economic opportunities elsewhere but who were still considered to be members of local households. Adult male and female residents were asked about their most recent journeys beyond their settlement of residence, and about their past long-term movements for periods of three months or more. Data on non-residents' place of current residence, occupation, duration of absence, and time of last visit to the home place were collected from the resident household head in an attempt to link the mobility system of residents and non-residents. Non-residents were considered, by virtue of their membership in resident households, to have residence rights there and to be engaged in long-term circulation rather than permanent migration. Residents were asked about other houses which they owned or in which they had residence rights in an attempt to identify the dimensions of multilocality and its relationship to population circulation. Total survey of nine rural settlements and random sample of households in the Okelele area of the old city of Ilorin Face-to-face interview
