: This study has been undertaken to assess the ageing problem among tribal people of Himachal Pradesh. A total sample comprises 80 households from tribal region in Himachal Pradesh. Result shows that aged population (above 64 years) is very high in migrant households (15.7 percent) as compared to non-migrant households (5 percent) in tribal region. It shows that due to migration of young people from migrant households, old people are left alone in many households and nobody is to look after them. Out-migration rate has been very high (26.2 percent) as compared to in-migrant (2.8 percent) and return-migrant (1.7 percent) in tribal region. Young unmarried people have been out-migrated more as compared to old people from tribal region (to get higher education and for getting job) to non-tribal region.

Aging, Fertility, Migrant and non-migrant, Mortality, Out-migration, Tribal region.
