Abstract

The study is devoted to both international and interregional migration in the Kaliningrad region as one of the factors defining its demographic situation in the 1990-2000th. The study employed statistical analysis methods based on the calculation of absolute and relative indicators of migration. The primary data source for the estimates is the annual statistics of migrant inflows and outflows since 1992 delineated by the area of origin and destination provided by the Federal State Statistics Service in the Kaliningrad region. Analysis of the changes of internal migration revealed that its intensity as well as gross migration decreased significantly. It is notable that such reduction in intensity is more characteristic of the regions that traditionally had the largest migration flows with regard to Kaliningrad region; those are the Far East and Northern regions as departure areas, and the regions of the European part of Russia as arrival areas. The same decline is observed in external migration between the region and the CIS-countries, with only Armenia and Kyrgyzstan intensifying migration flows with the region.
