dc.description.abstractHumn migration is the term used to describe the movement of people or groups, motivated by a variety of circumstances, from one geographical location to another. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the reasons behind migration from rural to injibaratown, its effects, and the difficulties that migrants encounter when they get urban. In May 2023, 196 migrant from three purposively chosen kebeles in Injibara town participated in a cross-sectional research. Both primary and secondary sources of data were employed in the investigation. Methods of descriptive regression were used to analyze the data. The study area's rural-urban migration patterns and the demographic makeup of migrants were examined through the use of descriptive analysis. While the Probit model estimation regression results were used, they showed that the following factors were significantly pull factors in the study area: marital status (being single), expected income in the urban setting, short distance, education level, and relatives who resided in the receiving area; whereas family size, gender (being male), age, unemployment, education status, land ownership, and inadequate income are significant push factors. The study also showed that the town's primary effects were increasing urban unemployment, driving up living expenses, straining social services and housing, and uncontrolled urban growth. Policies that try to lower the number of people moving from rural to urban areas should concentrate on providing social services, infrastructure, and jobs in both agricultural and non-agricultural sectors. Hence, provision of facilities and amenities, job creation and proper urban managements are needed in the town.
