Abstract
From the second half of the '90s Hungary - like many other Central European countries - has become a host country of migrants thanks to its economic catching-up and the European integration. Resident population of Hungary has been steadily decreased since the early ‘80s. Part of the declining domestic population has been replaced by foreign citizens, bringing with them their customs and different demographic composition. Thus, in addition to its direct population replacement role, migration has economic, social, demographic effects for Hungary. Since the regional distribution of foreign citizens is significantly different from that of Hungarian population the impacts of national scope are significantly outweighed by their influence that is perceptible in the areas preferred by them. Most migrants come from Romania to Hungary, so the aim of this article is – using the data the 2011 census – to demonstrate what Romanian migration groups can be observed in Hungary. The paper addresses in detail the exploration of source areas of Romanian citizens at regional and settlement levels, as well as the analysis of the connections between the present dwellings and those of emigration.
