Income Distribution
| Present Situation |
More peole live close to the main town or business area for convenience. However the land tenure system restricts people' choices therefore they are more inclined to live on their own pieces of land where ever that maybe located.
The movement of people within the country poses a minimal effect but the movement out of the country is a course for concern. Currently there are over 20.000 people living outside of Niue. The major impact of movement out of Niue is
the decline in the size of the labour force and major threat it poses towards economic development. |
