"Migrants who move longer distances tend to choose big city destination."

Example:

Ellis island, right outside of New York City, processes millions more immigrants more than Coppell does.

This is an example of people moving to a short distance.

"Every migration flow generates a return or countermigration."

Most people move to the city because of economic reasons. For example, many immigrants from Latin America move to the US in search of jobs, but usually people from California would not want to move to a farm to Mexico.

Example:

As you are crossing the street, you are moving from an area and people are also moving to that area.
