Migration is a concept having economic and social dimensions for many countries. Therefore, migration has important effects within the country as well as between countries. This study focused on internal migration, which is defined as the act of moving within the country for any reason. Income is first on the list when we talk about economic factors. Income inequality is the result of unequal distribution of income among a group of people in society. The major objective of this study is to determine the relationship between internal migration and income inequality in Turkey. The relationship between internal migration and income inequality was examined with logistic regression in line with the main purpose of study. Data for 2022 were used in the analysis, taking into account the TURKSTAT NUTS 2 (26 Regions) classification. According to the analysis results, it has been determined that income inequality increases the net migration rate. On the other hand, it has been found that employment and being a secondary school graduate have a reducing effect on the net migration rate. It has also been found that the relationship between labor force participation rate and average household size and internal migration is not statistically significant. The policies for reducing income inequality will have a reducing effect on internal migration. Likewise, increasing the level of education and employment will reduce internal migration.
