National-, regional- and urban-scale population deconcentration in West Germany
Abstract Internal migration patterns during the second half of the 1970s and the first half of the 1980s are evaluated at a regional scale intermediate to those utilized in previous core-to-periphery and urbanization-to-counterurbanization studies of West Germany. A spatial deconcentration of the West German population is evident in the form of redistribution down the metropolitan size hierarchy. Net (internal) out-migration from both the Rhine-Ruhr and the Rhine-Main-Neckar agglomeration regions benefitted the bicentric metropolitan areas and the smaller sized urban areas. A spatial deconcentration of manufacturing and service employment partially explains the net migration losses experienced by the Rhine-Ruhr and the Rhine-Main-Neckar. An investigation of population deconcentration trends within each of these two polycentric metropolitan regions proved inconclusive. This study provides an alternative core-periphery delimitation scheme which can be applied to the metropolitan system in the western part of newly unified Germany.
