| description | Castile and León hold among all the regions the highest proportion of young adults living in other areas of Spain. The negative balance is higher in the case of people with university studies. The high level of education of the native population and a labor market where the qualified jobs scarce, are the main reasons explaining the region’s brain drain. We use the microdata from the 2011 Census to analyze the status of Castile and León as a region exporting highly educated population to other areas in Spain, the migratory relation with other Autonomous Communities and the degree of overqualification in origin and in destination. In addition, we use a logistic regression model to capture the sociodemographic factors explaining internal migration. |
