Summary/Abstract: In the paper, panel data model of the interregional migration among 79 districts in Slovakia within 2005-2010 periods was estimated. Explanatory factors of unemployment, real wages and density of population were considered threefold: in the district inflow, outflow and net inflow models. In most cases, the factors were proved to be statistically significant. Besides, the fact that most developed regions were characterised by relatively high level of migration activities if compared to the underdeveloped regions, was also observed.
