Abstract
Abstract This article presents a typology of net age-specific migration patterns that are derived from “fundamental” directional migration patterns. The typology is related to places which have characteristics suggestive of commonplace rubrics such as “central cities,” “suburbs,” and so on. To test our migration typology, we compared theoretical migration rate distributions to archetypical empirical examples and found that the shapes were similar. It is suggested that these distributional forms may be of use to the planner in the creation or evaluation of population projections as well as in the understanding of past social and economic conditions of an area.
