Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to perform an exploratory investigation of the structure of inter-regional migration flows across Spanish regions between 1998 and 2006. We apply Sonis' (1980) extreme tendency decomposition to the flow matrices to reveal that the structure of inter-regional migration in Spain is becoming less complicated over time but the places of origin and destination have remained very similar.
