Migration can be classified into the following;
a)     Rural – rural migration
b)    Rural – urban migration
c)     Urban – urban migration
d)    Urban – rural migration
But attention will be focused on rapid urbanization process and this has caused great pressure on the existing infrastructure consequently.
This has however led to a deplorable living condition, unemployment and congestion of the urban centres.
The rationalization of infrastructure has become the order of the day and unemployment problem among the people in Ese-Odo Local Government Area of Ondo State.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEMS
There has been a large movement of people from rural areas to urban centres since independence
This project is meant to find out the causes and effects of rural-urban migration, which has now become rampant in the study area Ese-Odo Local Governemnt Area.

c)     What are the possible ways to check rural-urban migration in Ese-odo L.G.A.?
