1ST LAW

EXAMPLE-THE SUPERMARKET
The supermarket is an example of the 1st law of migration, because produce is being sold, but new foods are also coming in every day. For every sale in the supermarket, the store will also be getting foods to replace it.

2ND LAW

EXAMPLE-LOCAL FOODS
Food from the grocery store also is an example of the 2nd law, because the foods coming to the stores are coming from local farms. Local farms are easier to deal with, because they will provide produce and meat that will arrive fast, Migration is also traveled in a short distance, like the food due to the fact that it is easier to settle down in places that you can arrive faster.

3RD LAW

EXAMPLE-TRADE
Trade between countries result in the goods being transported to urban areas, because they represent the center of commerce and business of the society. Likewise, people tend to live in urban areas due to the fact that there are more opportunities for foreign people that have just migrated.

4TH LAW

EXAMPLE-RACCOONS
Raccoons have migrated to urban areas, which are easier to survive in. Raccoons use the urban environment due to the fact that this area is much more developed than a rural area. This is also the reason why people tend to move out of rural areas more, and urban citizens tend to stay where they are.

5TH LAW

EXAMPLE-COLLEGE STUDENTS
International college students only have to support themselves, but if a family moves then they must support the children, their education, and housing. Adding to the fact that these foreign people have a difficulty settling down, the disadvantages for the family far outweigh the ones for young adults.
