Abstract
⺠We study migration into less-popular areas using survey data (N = 664). ⺠Linking movers' motives and characteristics shows the diversity of rural in-migrants. ⺠Also in less-popular areas counterurbanisation is a differentiated phenomenon. ⺠These areas also attract middle-class movers motivated by the rural idyll. ⺠They attract groups with other motivations too, like the proximity of family.
