The line graph sets out the key motivation for people relocating to the capital of a specific country over the past 15 years from 2000 to 2015. Overall, people chose to study overseas as the greatest reason to move.
Moving for purpose of study saw the greatest rise in general, with a jump of approximately 62, 000. It rose considerably in two periods from 2000 to 2005 (by 22, 000), and then again from 2010 to 2015 (by 33, 000), with a more gentle growth around 7000 in between.
Turning to the point of people relocating for work/elsewhere, the figure of people relocating for work began at 61, 000 in 2000, then peaked at 92, 000 in 2010 – the highest of any reasons, in any year before finishing as the joint – highest in 2015 (87000 – one a level with those relocating in order to study). Notably, this category was the only one of the four that underwent a downturn.
Turning to “adventure”, this category rose the most stable and steadily of all four categories, from 11, 000 to 15, 000 over the fifteen years period. Meanwhile, the number of people relocating for family and friends’ reasons climbed in the first five years (12, 000-14, 000), followed by an upswing to 22, 000, before eventually leveling off at around 23, 000 in 2015.
In conclusion, besides employment, there was an increase in each of the four reasons for moving over the period, with the greatest rise occurring in those citing study as the main motivating factor.
