title: Migration regions of the Philippines.
abstract: "In contrast to results for several other nations, hierarchical regionalizations based upon 1960 Philippine lifetime migration do not indicate that islands act as migration regions....Inter-island links seem to be more important than intra-island ties.  Northern Luzon, the Bicol Peninsula and the Southern Philippines are among the regions that appear.  Manila and its suburban province of Rizal are exceptional both for the breadth and strength of their interprovincial migration ties."
