The determinants of regional migration in Croatia*

Ana Grdović Gnip

Sažetak

Migration has had a great impact on Croatia, especially after it joined the EU.
Thus, several studies have focused on international migration compared to
regional migration which is under investigation. This study sheds some light on the
determinants of internal migration at the NUTS3 level in Croatia in the 2000-2019
period relying on a fixed effects panel estimation. The results show that regional
migration in Croatia is in line with the stylized facts on migration. The living
standard and (labour) productivity measures, along with employment and wages
are the main economic drivers of migration inflows and outflows. However, regions
with substantial tourism activity attract inflows and disincentivize outflows of
people, while regions with a high share of agriculture, forestry, and fisheries in the
value-added decrease internal migration inflows. Moreover, environmental
protection results also being a significant determinant of regional migration.
