1 The number of moves between Scotland and the rest of the UK shown here differ from those quoted elsewhere. This is because movements to/from the armed forces are included in these figures but are excluded from the others.
2 The total in- and out-migration figures for Scotland equal the sum of migration from / to the rest of the UK and overseas. However, they do not equal the sum of moves for individual Council or NHS Board areas. Migration for individual Council and NHS Board areas includes people moving within Scotland. Since such moves do not involve anyone leaving or entering Scotland, they are not counted in the Scotland totals.
3 Figures in this column have not been rounded and so may differ slightly from those in table 4.
4 Includes asylum seekers
