Question

PLEASE HELP!!!
Examples of push factors causing people to migrate are NAME ALL THAT APPLYY!!
1-Overpopulation
2-Higher standard of living
3-War
4-Job opportunities
5-Natural disasters
6- Reliable food sources

Answer 1

1 could make sense I suppose because overcrowding results in less food, privacy, resources, etc.

I wouldn't really consider 2 a push factor...I mean, I suppose if you were living in some sort of village and had a chance to live in a house for once, it could be...

3 doesn't necessarily count as a push factor. If you look at larger wars in history, people don't really migrate after or during a war. The only time this comes to play is if the economy and well-being of a nation has dropped to an unbearable level, then people would want to find some place better to live.

4 is true because people are always looking for a chance to make money and will move if needed to get a job

5, eh. Natural disasters aren't really a push factor. In history, the original 4 civilizations had some problems with flooding rivers and such, but they didn't just get up and leave. Also, we don't just move out of Florida now even if there is a hurricane.

6, if they are saying that the reliable food sources are somewhere else, then definitely. If they are saying that it is there already, then no. Think of the group following Attila the Hun. They moved partially because of food related resources. They needed to sustain themselves.

That's really all the help I can think to give. :/
