However, the name for Oviedo province, changed to Asturias in 1983 and the name for Santander province changed to Cantabria in 1982. MIG2_10_ES listing residence 10 years ago enumerates these place names in the 1981 sample.
See MIG2_P_ES, MIG2_1_ES, and MIG2_5_ES for province of previous residence at other time intervals in the past.
The data for 1981 are technically place of residence 10 years and 4 months ago (December 31, 1970).
