Note:  Migrants are defined as persons who were in a different 
       residence in 2000 than in 1995 and for whom the 2000 
       residence was in a different county or country than their 
       residence in 1995; that is, a migrant is one who in 
       moving crosses a county boundary in the United States or 
       who comes to the United States from another nation.  The 
       total number of migrants in this table thus includes both 
       domestic migrants and international migrants.
