The aim of this paper is to examine the population change in Finland between the second half of the 1980s and 1990s and to interpret the processes underlying this change, based on data from 1996. In particular we compare the patterns of internal migration and population change in Finland in the 1980s (using data for 1984) and the 1990s (using data for 1996) and establish the contribution of internal migration to regional population change against the contributions of natural change. Finally, one of the consequences of internal migration, namely the change of sex composition of population in communes, is discussed.
