Climate disruption today and anticipated future climate breakdown are reshaping demographic spatial processes, with profound consequences for societies across the globe. Specifically, migration can become a key strategy to attempt respond cope environmental change. This paper seeks make sense of one type migration, counterurbanisation, in this era. It provides conceptual clarity what is termed 'climate-related counterurbanisation' vis-à-vis wider climate-induced positions within counterurbanisation literature. Climate-related presented as largely voluntary movement down settlement hierarchy direct or indirect response change, positive representations 'rurality' central relocation decision: individual adaptation. However, it mediated by numerous geographically variegated specific environmental, cultural, social economic factors. Indeed, may ultimately come be seen more maladaptation than While moving from urban rural at household level, such relocations overall have much negative impacts on host communities people left behind.

This article focuses on the medium-to-long-term effects of COVID-19 and associated non-pharmaceutical interventions population movements across urban–rural spectrum in Italy. By analysing data from Facebook/Meta, registers, housing market January 2020 to May 2022, we aim determine whether trends observed at beginning pandemic have sustained over time. Results indicate an initial shift away densely populated urban areas, marked by increased Facebook connections, higher rent prices rising property sales less locales. As progressed, however, a decline connections outside poles indicated resurgence living. At same time, intermediate ultra-peripheral regions continued attract permanent residents, as evidenced lively growth these areas. suggests complex pattern, where areas remain attractive, but appeal suburban rural living has significantly increased, with both theoretical practical implications. These findings challenge existing models urbanisation call for re-evaluation factors driving residential preferences mobility. Ultimately, better understanding patterns could inform balanced policies that leverage internal migration dynamics, supporting infrastructure development while adjusting planning mitigate potential negative impacts like overcrowding resource strain.
