Současné tendence vývoje obyvatelstva metropolitních areálů v Česku : dochází k významnému obratu? =Contemporary tendencies of population development of metropolitan areas in Czechia : is an important? turn coming?

Abstract

Population development of metropolitan areas in Czechia displays in recent years a certain turn - since 2002 these territorial units have been growing again and increasing their share on the population of the country. However, when compared with the long-term development, those changes are rather insignificant. Their explanation comes mainly from the regional economic differentiation dating from the first decade of the transformation period. There is a dominant influence of external migration, whereas migration mobility of domestic population remains still at a low level
