Components of Population Change: 2000-2007
Natural Increase & Net Migration
Until 1960, natural increase (an excess of births over deaths) accounted for virtually all
of Georgia's growth. Georgia is expected to rank 4th among 50 states in the number of
persons gained through net internal migration during the 30-yr. period of 1995 and 2025.
