The primary migration during Tabasco's oil boom was internal, occurring between municipalities.
Contrary to initial assumptions, migration from other Mexican states into Tabasco was less significant.
The study details the directionality of these migratory flows and migrant employment characteristics.

Conclusions:

Internal migration within Tabasco was the dominant demographic response to the oil boom.
Understanding these intra-state movements is crucial for regional development planning.
The findings highlight the localized impact of oil discoveries on population dynamics.
