Summary/Abstract: This report presents the results of a study of the spatial imbalances of the age net migration in Bulgaria. Correspondence analysis is used for the formation of the territorial units in the country that differ significantly in terms of their age profile of the net migration flow. The application of the correspondence analysis is accomplished on the basis of residence differentiated two-dimensional distribution of the net migration flow by districts and migrants’ age in 2014. As a result, territorial units are highlighted that determine the spatial variation of the age migration growth in Bulgaria. They are analysed in terms of the age composition of the net migration growth and its impact on the age structure of their population. Finally, conclusions are made as well as summaries of the results obtained.
