Assessing Socio-Econmic Impect of Rural-Urban Migration in Sodo town, SNNPR, Etiopia;
Migration is a form of geographical mobility between one geographical units (origin) to a certain destination generally involving a change of residence from a place to the place of arrival (destination). It involves a permanent or temporary change of residence from one neighborhood settlement (Administrative Unit); this process is also out migration. Moving to a particular location is defined as immigration (Kebede, 1994). In the p ast years rural to urban migration in developed countries grew during the time of industrialization, when more mechanized farming needed few agricultural workers in the rural area and when there was demand for labor in urban based industries. But this is not always the case in developing countries are more a function of rural problems than the urban attractions (Kenfe, 2001:46).
