Migration within Scotland refers to people moving from one part of Scotland to another. For example people might move from one council area to another or from one NHS Board area to another. These moves do not affect the size of Scotland’s population but do affect the distribution of the population within Scotland. The main source of data used to produce the National Records of Scotland (NRS) estimates of this sort of migration is General Practitioner (GP) registration information. More information on how these migration estimates are derived can be found in the migration statistics Methodology section of this website.

Total migration includes all migration to or from an area. For Scotland this would include moves to and from the rest of the UK and moves to and from any country outside the UK whilst for an administrative area (Council or NHS Board) it would also include moves to and from other such areas in Scotland. Please note that methods to produce international migration estimates changed for mid-2020 and mid-2021. More information on how these migration estimates are derived can be found in the migration statistics Methodology section of this website.

This is a mixed methods dataset.

The project examined Scots living in England. Scots are one of the largest non-English born immigrant groups in the UK. While the attraction of Scotland to the English-born population is documented, less attention is given to why Scots continue to migrate to England (albeit in lower numbers) and how the employment and progression opportunities, especially in the South Eastern England labour market compare with opportunities in Scotland. This is important in the context of concern about Scotland's demographic regime and the significant reduction in numbers projected over the next three decades. The research literature points to the need to reassess the role of the Scots living in SE England (especially those in cities/large towns) in terms of the functions they perform. Why have their numbers declined? How has the scale of Scottish return migration from the SE varied over time relative to the changing role of Scotland in national/international economic and political processes and in relation to demographic change in Scotland?

The research uses questionnaire survey data from a sample of Scots migrants living in South East England in 2005 with 30 qualitative interviews with Scots who had returned to Scotland.
