This paper aims to study demographic impact of migration in Ratnagiri District. process of economic development makes impact on population size and features of population. At the same time quantity and quality of labour force determines level of economic development. Since Ratnairi is a hilly area ,there is shortage of cultivable lands and natural constraints on creating transport facilities this resulted in low pace of industrialization and agriculture development. Because of unemployment and lack of economic opportunities in the district, people have tendency to migrate metropolitan cities like Mumbai, pune, etc. for getting employment opportunities. Out migration has affected demographic features of the district. such as high sex ratio, increasing share of aging population ,decreasing share of working population,etc.
