DeRLAS Vol. 4 No. 2 Ravuri The concentration of Bolívar-born outmigrants peaked in 1971 with 53.4 percent of all outmigrants from Bolívar residing in the capital region and declined to 45.2 percent by 1990. Although, Bolívar was never to gain more life-time migrants from the capital region than it sent to the capital region, by 1990 the migrant exchange ratio was 0.96, indicating almost an even exchange of life-time migrants between the State of Bolívar and the four states of the capital region. In 1950, the Federal District was the destination for almost one third, 32.7 percent, of outmigrants from Bolívar State (figure 2B, table 2), but by 1990, this figure dropped to only 17.3 percent. www.udel.edu /LASP/Vol4-2Ravuri.html
