Migratory flows in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul (1970-2010)

Abstract: The objective of this article was to analyze the evolution of urban and rural population concentration in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul between 1970 and 2010. Localization indicators were used, using the Locational Quotient and Location Coefficient; And indicators of population redistribution, as measured by the Redistribution Coefficient. By means of a descriptive analysis of some observed parameters on the migratory flow, it was verified that the same municipalities that concentrated population in the decades of 1970 and 1980, still concentrate in the recent period.
