Most studies show that the members of rural communities who are most likely to migrate to urban centers are those who have been to school. The studies seem to show a consistent positive correlation between an individual's level of education his propensity to migrate. REASONS (1) The income gap between what the 'educated' ones can earn in urban areas compared with their rural opportunity cost is larger than it is for the illiterate ones.(2) The educated ones are more likely to obtain a lucrative modern sector job. But because jobs are scarce,a large proportion of those who migrate often remain unemployed.
One of the reasons why people move to cities is in search of employment. At the same time, people also move to cities in the hope of getting higher education. People in villages can be educated up to a certain level because there is no opportunity to pursue higher education in villages. Later, when a person gets higher education, he cannot return to the village for employment. There are no such jobs for highly educated people in villages. As a result, he finds a job in the city. And they want to realize the reality and leave a place for their children in the city for their future. But later, when he retires from his job, he wants to return to the village. People mainly move to cities for employment.
