Are old regions less attractive? Interregional labour migration in a context of population ageing
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 1429-1447, December 2021., 2021 Abstract Regional demographic change is often conceptualized as a circular process, where out‐migration continuously worsens conditions of population ageing and shrinkage. Thus, if migration acts as a consequence as well as cause of ageing, migration patterns should be influenced by the age structure of origin and destination regions.
