Causes of Rural-to-rural Migration

Question

State four causes of rural to rural migration.

Answer

Rural-to-rural migration refers to the movement of people from one rural area to another. This type of migration occurs within a country or region and involves individuals or families leaving one rural location and settling in another rural location. Rural-to-rural migration can be driven by various factors, including:
- Pressure on land make people to buy / look for land elsewhere
- People move in search of employment
- Insecurity in some rural area make people to move to safer places.
- setting up of government development projects caused displacement of people.
- natural hazards force people to move to other areas for safety in search of pasture water for their livestock.
- changes in the land tenure system disputes cause people to move and settle elsewhere.
