Reverse Migration OR Salmon Phenomenon

br>Reverse Migration OR Salmon Phenomenon

The last couple of days there has been a lot of news about reverse migration.
Immigrants in the United States (mostly Illegal) are returning to their native land. The US economy going in recession, back home the economy is booming in countries like India, China and Brazil.

Everyone has a different reason to go back.. One of my friend who recently took a high paying job in Barclays, India (Pune)  left US after 4 years mentioned about going back to his roots/his family...but I think it had to do a lot with the high salary
Barclays gave him and so many companies giving out in India. 
For many illegals it might be due to the tougher restriction on getting drivers license renewed or like many 
Brazilians immigrants in Boston or NJ it just might be the economy.
                                    

                                                                                                    

Few days back Miamiherald had the news about more Hispanics retiring to native homelands. The many reasons that were quoted were more health benefits for retiress back home, better value for the money they have saved in US and able to maintain the same standard of living and anxiety at returning to one's roots. You can read the complete
article here.

When my friend went back to Pune, India last month; I was thinking is it time for me to go back? but then I got a email from my folks out there who were counting the days for the summer to be over and on top of that
NO electricity at 115 degrees for 3-4 hrs every day. Wow.........idea dropped and that too for a long time...... may be I will think again when I am about to retiree ...
