MATURANA-MIRANDA, Francisco; ROJAS-BOTTNER, Andrés  e  POBLETE-LOPEZ, David. Analysis and migration trends in the Biobío region (Chile) between 1982 and 2002. Application from the gravity model. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2016, vol.16, n.52, pp.727-759. ISSN 2448-6183.

The process of internal migration is analyzed in the Biobío Region; this yields a process of spatial redistribution tending to the polarization of the space towards the regional capital “Concepción Metropolitano” and towards other adjacent municipalities. Similarly, it is observed a strong migratory attraction to the provincial capitals of Chillan and Los Angeles, but confined to their hinterland. Additionally, the profile of the migrant who moves from these cities to the regional capitals is characterized by a high level of education, while the migrants from neighboring municipalities to provincial capitals are mainly young people with low schooling levels.
