The number of young "expats" who each year leave the country has doubled in the past five years. It has gone from 11,550 in 2011 to nearly 22,500 in 2015, an increase of 95%, a rate higher than the 77% registered by Italian expats of all ages.
Looking at the destinations of expats under 30, an analysis by Centro studi Datagiovani for Il Sole 24 Ore-ItalyEurope24 shows that in 77% (over 17,000) of cases expats don't go too far away as their final stop in one of countries in the European Union. A small percentage, 10% of the total or about 2,300 under 30, choose South America while North America attracts 5%, or about 1,100 people.
