Interesting, and a bummer. I did see two other posts on how MIGSTA5 and MIGSTA1 are problematic in 1995, with one about them having the same case counts, and a post about missing values in MIGSTA1 in 1995. Seems like a bad data year for migration. I appreciate the addition of a note on the variable!
