According to the past domestic research, most people are concerned about the reason and the influence of migration. However, after the migration, there is little discussion about whether the migration did happen, or what kind of migration it brings.
According to the Taiwan government''s internal migration data, Yunlin County is one of the regions with the largest emigration. About 400,000 Yunlin County''s residents moved to new Taipei county.
