Atlas of internal migration in Brazil 2022 Census · 2017–2022

Migration in Sobral (2017–2022)

Intermediate region with 44 municipalities and a reference population of 1,266,375 people. In the 2017–2022 five-year period, the unit received 46,605 in-migrants and lost 30,470 out-migrants coming from or going to places outside its borders, a net migration of +16,135 (12.74 per 1,000 population).

Migration between municipalities of the same intermediate region is not counted here; only the flows that cross the unit's border are. The indicators on this page are direct sums of the published municipal flows (excluding the pairs suppressed by disclosure control), not a new sample estimate: that is why there is no standard error or confidence interval at this aggregation level.
