Casacalenda -- Emigration Patterns
Date: Current
Notes: From (English) Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
     
      Emigration
      Since the end of World War II until the 1970s, the town's population declined considerably due to emigration. The places of choice for these emigrants were the Canadian cities of Montreal and Toronto. Montreal even has its own Casacalenda Association. Duncan B.C. also has a sizeable community per its population.
