Migration trends
More people leave Dominica than settle there. Around 21.4K Dominicans live abroad — against a resident population of just 66.2K — though that diaspora has barely moved in a decade, up only 1%. They've scattered across the Caribbean rather than to one big hub, led by the US Virgin Islands (5.5K), Antigua and Barbuda, and Guadeloupe.
