Several are the focus of research in this area that is international migration from the application of descriptive works complex models. On the brazilian’case the vast majority of studies have used aggregate data with information of macro region.

For this builds up a matrix of intercity migration. The results show among the largest intercity in net migration rate emphasizing those that stand out more positively and negatively as well as intercity that are highlighted in the regional migration and immigration. Among the highlights from the largest positive net migration is Lauro de Freitas, city of Bahia state and the extreme, ie, between the lowest net (negative) Itabuna in Bahia state...
