Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in both of these terms depends on the point of reference or location, simply since they are both very similar to one another. For example, if an individual in California packs up and decides to move permanently to New York then to them the process would be considered Out-migration since they are moving out of their location to another location. To someone in New York, the individual's movement would be considered In-Migration since they are moving into New York from elsewhere. Therefore, the difference is mainly in the point of reference.
