Migration and occupational mobility from a Nova Scotia coal mining town.

The questions raised in this study focus on several dimensions of the migration from Coalville. (1) What social characteristics distinguish people who stay from people who migrate? (2) What are the geographical destinations of the migrants? (3) When individuals leave the community, what kind of jobs and industries do they move into? (4) What "channels of communication" assist the process of migration from Coalville.
