Net migration has been the dominant factor affecting growth for the region and State during the past 30 years. Net in-migration is greater for the region than the State. Between 1970 and 1980, net migration accounted for approximately 97% of the region's growth (the remaining 3% was due to natural increase). About 90% of the State's population growth was frmn net immigration during this same period. Monroe County is the only county where the population growth is not largely attrib uted to net migration; more than 80% of its growth was from natural increase.
