Describe 3 advantages of migration for the host country.

Migrants increase the tax base (the number of people paying taxes), which is an economic advantage.They can also stabilise the birth rates of countries with ageing populations, because migrants are very often young, working-age and ready to have children. As well as this, migrants enrich the culture of the host country and diversify its traditions, which is a cultural advantage.
