Trends in migration in the UK.
This article presents the latest annual statistics for international migration and for internal population movements in the United Kingdom, and compares them with recent trends. It also aims to give some information on the characteristics of the migrants from the data sources that are available. Measuring migration is not straightforward as there is no compulsory system within the United Kingdom to record movements of the population, either into the country from abroad or within the country. Nevertheless, we can estimate these movements from available data sources and so monitor migration trends and patterns.
