The pie charts compare the percentage of six reasons why individuals immigrated

and emigrated in and out the United Kingdom (the UK) in 2007. Of all the six
causes, the migration mainly focused on having a certain job.
As can be seen from the charts, the statistics for each reason were remarkably
various. In terms of the similarities, the proportion of earning a definite career
constituted the highest figures for both immigration and emigration, with 30% for
the former and 29% for the latter. Referring to the differences, those who moved to
the UK to pursue formal study ranked second with 26% while those who looked for
work in the case of emigration were the runner-up with 22%, which nearly halved
the statistic for that of immigration with 12%.
It is clear from the charts that other reasons also depicted a considerable
distinction. 15% of the causes why they immigrated to the UK was due to
accompanying or joining, which was nearly similar to that of emigration with 13%.
The same were the statistics for moving in or out the UK with other reasons, bearing
a striking similarity, at about more or less than 13%. Another remarkable feature is
that those who chose to settle down in the UK without any reason only accounted
for 6%, which was only one-third of that of emigration. Lastly, there was an
exception that formal study composed the lowest level with a modest statistic at
4%.
In summary, although in both immigration and emigration, having a certain job
comprised the highest, the proportions of the formal study showed the biggest gap
between the two.
