Summary/Abstract: This paper tackles spatial mobility of the population in the Republic of Serbia, according to the census data from 1981 to 2011, and annual data given by The Statistical office of the Republic of Serbia from 2002-2013. The aim of this paper is to establish the basic characteristics of the inner population mobility and to point out the regional inequalities. Analysis shows that on the territory of Serbia there is inter-municipal definitive and temporary migration, and that its direction and intensity change over time. Increased population mobility can be observed towards Belgrade area, as well as other regional centers: Novi Sad, Kragujevac, Nis. The conclusion is that Serbia is in its late transition phase of spatial mobility of population, with prominent daily migrations in large city areas, especially Belgrade area.
