Resumen	The migration effectiveness index measures how efficiently the gross churning of people between regions actually redistributes population, by expressing net migration as a share of total migration turnover. Two regions can each exchange enormous numbers of migrants and yet end up with almost unchanged populations, because the inflows and outflows nearly cancel; the same net change could instead arise from a small, lopsided, highly directed flow. The effectiveness index distinguishes these cases: it runs from near zero, where gross flows are balanced and population is barely redistributed, toward one hundred, where migration is so one-directional that almost every move contributes to net change. Martin Bell and colleagues codified this measure in their influential 2002 framework for cross-national comparison of internal migration, alongside companion indices of overall migration intensity and the aggregate net migration rate, which combines intensity and effectiveness into a single summary of how much migration reshapes the settlement pattern. Together these indices form a standard toolkit for describing and comparing migration systems across countries and over time.	The net migration rate expresses the net effect of migration on a population's size as a rate: net migration — in-migrants minus out-migrants over a period — divided by the population at risk, conventionally stated per 1000 people. It is the migration counterpart to the rate of natural increase and a standard component of population accounting. Because directional migration flows are often poorly recorded, net migration is frequently not counted directly but estimated as a residual from the demographic balancing equation or by comparing surviving cohorts across two censuses.
