to calculate the net migration the book says the difference between the number of immigrants and the number of emmigrants will give you the answer. im not sure about the net internal migration. ill try to get back to u on that.

this is what i found on the internet:
Net Internal Migration - the difference between internal in-migration to an area and internal out-migration from the same area during a time period. Internal in- and out-migration consist of moves where both the origin and the destination are with in the United States (excluding Puerto Rico). The net internal migration rate expresses net internal migration during a time period as a percentage of an area’s population at the midpoint of the time period.
