Various measures have been implemented by the government with limited results. There are however indications that the net flow of migrants between southern and western regions of Iceland and the capital area has changed.

There are no significant differences between migration push and pull factors.http://www.thjodfelagid.is/index.php/Th/article/view/52/pdfMigrationWest-Icelandfinancial crisis
