This paper focuses on analyzing the nature of Colombian migration to Mexico in the last 30 years. In presenting figures and statistical evolutions, we intend to carry out a qualitative and argumentative analysis of the migratory situation of Colombians in Mexico. Methodologically, we reviewed lines of statistical progression in absolute numbers of resident population, migratory outflows and other relevant statistical elements to identify migratory trends and explored the migratory history of Mexico to determine the beginning and evolution of Colombian migration in this country. These elements will allow the reader to approach to and reflect on the various dimensions of the phenomenon concerned. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Even though there has been a long tradition of emigration from Colombia, only in the last ten years has there been a significant increase as a result of events and circumstances that have transformed the lives of Colombian citizens. This article focuses on studying the trends of the third Colombian diaspora wave between 2005 and 2015, reviewing the growth and decreases of the traditional destinations, as well as detecting the emergence of new destinations, in terms of the nature of migration to those destinations, and estimates of the actual number of Colombians in the recipient countries throughout this period.
