In 2020, 1,708 Brussels enterprises have moved to Flanders. This is the most significant migratory flow: it is higher by 531 units than the number of migrations of enterprises located in Flanders moving to Brussels (1,177). Movements between these two regions account for half of the migrations in Belgium.
Migratory flows between Brussels and Wallonia are less significant, but also to the disadvantage of Brussels. 751 Walloon enterprises moved to Brussels, while 1,116 enterprises left Brussels for Wallonia.
The share of enterprises moving to Brussels is, however, much more pronounced for Walloon enterprises, because the active population of Walloon enterprises is less significant than the one in Flanders.
In total, Brussels is involved in 83% of the migratory flows in Belgium. We register only 529 movements from Flanders to Wallonia, and 467 from Wallonia to Flanders.
