How many people in the world move a year?
It's difficult to estimate the exact number of people who move each year as no centralized database keeps track of global migration patterns. However, we can look at some estimates and statistics to get an idea of the number of people who move.
According to the United Nations, there were an estimated 281 million international migrants worldwide in 2020, up from 173 million in 2000. This includes people who have moved permanently or temporarily to a different country for various reasons, such as work, family, or education.
In addition, many more people move within their own countries or regions. According to the World Bank, an estimated 10.5% of the global population moved within their own country in 2020, roughly 824 million people. This includes both rural-to-urban migration and urban-to-urban migration.
Therefore, many millions of people move domestically and internationally each year. However, the exact number varies yearly and depends on various factors such as economic conditions, political instability, and natural disasters.
