Composition of Movers

This map shows the compositions of people in each region that did not live at the same address five years earlier. The colour is given by mixing the proportion of people moving within the same city (green), people moving from another city within Canada (blue) and people moving from outside of Canada (red). Compare this to the map of the percentage of people that lived at a different address 5 years ago and the similar map of migrants, that is people moving from another city. It is interesting to see how clearly some municipal boundaries are visible in the map, like the the boundary between City of Vancouver and Burnaby that shows how the east-most part of the City of Vancouver attracts much higher rate of non-migrants. The same can be observed in Toronto. Also compare this to the corresponding map of components of origin that looks at how many people in each region were born in the same province they live in, in a different province in Canada or outside of Canada.
