Why would people move from the south of the Italy to the north?

Answer 1

In the South, there is infertile soil, only subsistence farming (farming to survive not to make money), poor education, only primary jobs (farming), very mountainous (has a high relief, the Apennines travel all the way down Italy), shorter life expectancy, poor medical care, hot, dry climate and poor transportation links with the rest of Europe.

In the North, there are secondary jobs (factories) and tertiary jobs (providing a service: doctor, teacher, nurse, fireman, policeman), tourism (Alps (skiing)), flat land, good irrigation (water) systems (River Po), more opportunities and the Industrial Triangle (Milan (fashion central), Turin (own Fiat) and Genoa (major port)).

People move for better lives, more job opportunities, more leisure activities, more wealth, steadier, more pleasurable climate and rainfall, more relaxed (not having to slave away just to survive), decent education, worthwhile job and industrial towns and cities.

However, some Northern Italians can get annoyed with Southern Italians, if they think they are using up all their jobs, educations, water supplies, food, money, housing and transportation.

Thanks, I basically just copied out my geography test for this :]
