Internal migration movements which have started to gain speed since 1950s, are still increasing with accelerating trend today. Movements of rural people from their birth place to urban areas are called “rural migration”. Around two million (1 775 909) individuals have moved from rural areas to urban areas during the period of 1995-2000 in Turkey. Interior provinces of Western and Eastern Anatolia face high migration movements rate than the other provinces which have less rural population. Rural migration movement is high in Eastern, South Eastern, Blacksea and Interior Anatolia regions and is low in some provinces of Western Blacksea, Mediterranean (coastal provinces), Marmara and Ege regions. Several social- economic factors have affect on rural migration movements. In this study, relationships between migration and socio- economic properties were examined buy using several statistical techniques such as hierarchic cluster, correlation and regression analysis. The results of hierarchic cluster analysis indicated that bordering provinces are in same group due to resemblance of rural structure. Results also show that there is no overlap between similarity groups and migration rate of provinces. According to results of correlation analysis among 39 socio-economic variables only three of them represent moderate, twelve of them have weak and finally twenty one of the represent have very weak relationships with migration rate. Results also reveal that 18 variables have statistically significant relationship with migration rate at 95 % confidence level. Consequently, it can be said that rural migration has been controlled by several socio- economic factors along with several other factors such as socio-physiologic conditions, positive aspects of urban areas and unattractive sides of rural settlements. Keywords: Internal migration, provinces, socio-economic properties, correlation, regression.
