Abstract

Considering the debates regarding population migration from rural areas, the purpose of this study is to analyze socio-economic indicators to identify the main challenges of rural areas in Romania as well as to identify solutions to ensure the development of the Romanian rural environment. Our research aims to present the socioeconomic consequences of the rural population's migration by analyzing indicators such as the population by domicile by residence, the average age of the population by domicile, the flow of internal urban and rural migration, the population activity rate, the employed population per economic activities, and the total average monthly income obtained by a rural person. In addition, at the end of the study, a Pearson correlation was made with the help of the SPSS software, which identified the link between income from agriculture and the number of people working in agriculture. The results obtained indicated that while the number of people employed in agriculture, forestry, and fishing is decreasing, the average total income from agriculture is increasing. On the other hand, the migration of the population from the rural area to the urban area is on average about 82 thousand people and the rural population is in a continuous decrease, while the average age registered in the rural area is higher compared to the average age registered in urban areas.
