I find this fascinating: 700 Million Worldwide Desire to Migrate Permanently:
----------
Every day, migrants leave their homelands behind for new lives in other countries. Reflecting this desire, rather than the reality of the numbers that actually migrate, Gallup finds about 16% of the world's adults would like to move to another country permanently if they had the chance. This translates to roughly 700 million worldwide -- more than the entire adult population of North and South America combined.
----------
Large number of people in Sub-Saharan Africa want to move, an average of 38% would like to move permanently. I was surprised that Asia had the lowest percentage, only about 10%.
