Zusammenfassung:Romanians are the most considerable group of foreign population in Hungary. That is why it is important to know what kind of features and spatial impacts characterize the international migration between these two neighbouring countries. The present paper aims at studying to where Romanians come from and to where where they go. This paper analysis the spatial characteristics of migration networks from Romania to Hungary. An analysis of the spatial distribution of migrants shows that there are two separate and considerable geographical motives, which mostly determine the location of foreigners in Hungary, namely, the effects of centers and the borders. The first case meant both a dynamic centre of immigration to Hungary and such emigration from Romania. There, a wide variety of occupations can be found. The authors points out that highly educated and skilled workers have been attracted from a large distance to Budapest and Pest County. The second geographical motive is the proximity to the border, which is not a barrier, but rather a contact zone.
