The line graph sets out the main motivations people expressed for relocating to the countryside from the city in the years 1990, 2000 and 2010. The overall trend for the period is of an increase in the numbers moving away from the city.
According to the graph, the main reason for relocation was the rising cost of living. In 1990, 65, 000 people left the city because of this, then 85, 000 left in 2000, then 80, 000 people moved away in 2010, so it actually increased by 20, 000initially (between 1990 and 2000), before going down by 5, 000 in those last ten years between 2000 and 2010.
It was a different story for traffic and lifestyle. Both had the same number of city leavers at the start of the period. Subsequently, both categories saw increases, with traffic first going up by a large number between 1990 and 2000 and then even more steeply after that. Lifestyle leavers rose consistently over the whole period, going up to 30, 000 initially, then up again to 2010.
So, what does it all mean? For me, the answer is crystal clear. Overall, the graph shows that a huge number of people moved away from the city to the countryside in a twenty-year period.
