| Summary: | The study discusses interprovincial migrations in Turkey and determines secondary migration centers that have the potential to receive migration other than those that directly receive migration. The researcher focused on 47 provinces, most of which are emigration centers. It was determined that nine of them had the potential of receiving migration from their immediate vicinity as a secondary migration center. In addition to determining factors that affect these centers in terms of receiving migration, the researcher tried to identify their impact areas. Furthermore, results indicate that rather than socioeconomic development levels, higher levels of urbanization compared with neighboring provinces and social networks established because of proximity were main factors for the migrations that these secondary migration attraction centers received. Socioeconomic development index (SEDI) values and attraction coefficients of provinces data were used to determine the centers in the study. Further, life index in provinces data were used to determine effective factors that influence migrations received by these centers. The SPSS 22 package program was used for data analysis, whereas the ArcGIS 10.2 program was used for preparing maps. |
