Migration Data Resource: European Commission's Atlas of Migration

The European Commission's Atlas of Migration is an online repository compiling migration data from both UN and non-UN sources (World Bank, UNDP, UNHCR, UNDESA, etc.). This resource may be helpful to anyone needing data on demographics, types of migrants, remittances, asylum seekers & refugees, and more for virtually all recognized countries in the world. EU27 countries even have all of their data standardized by Eurostat so comparisons between countries are possible.
