The migration of immigrants in Finland is highly concentrated and directed to the Helsinki metropolitan area. The trend in the pandemic period is the solid growth of Helsinki Ring of Industry municipalities. The ten municipalities in the Central Uusimaa region have been the most significant migration winners. The municipalities have benefited the most from the much-talked-about multi-location as loose housing attracts teleworkers. Helsinki's migration loss is due to the fact that so many people in the 25-44 age group move out of the capital.
