At the end of the 20th century, the migration trend in Russia changed its direction: from centrifugal to centripetal. The geography of inflow and outflow did not experience any substantial changes, but the quantitative indices of net migration varied greatly. Since the second half of the 1990s, there has been both a gradual decline in the migration turnover and a shift of its net balance from a zero in all economic microregions. This paper analyzes the regional localization of migration processes across the country in 1990–2009. The country’s regions are grouped into those that lose and gain population, which is illustrated by maps. The net migration is considered across the economic regions and federal subjects. Our study allows us to make conclusion that the direction and intensity of migration processes can be considered an indicator of economic disparities across the regions.
