Based on data from the U.N. Population Division, this amazing interactive map by Metrocosm shows the estimated net migration (inflows minus outflows) by origin and destination country between 2010 and 2015. (See explanation below map)
Blue circles = positive net migration (more inflows). Red circles = negative net migration (more outflows). Each yellow dot represents 1,000 people.
Hover over a circle to see that country’s total net migration between 2010 and 2015. Click a circle (or tap twice on mobile) to view only the migation flows in and out of that country.
