Looking at that link I think there's been a drift from Dundee to Not Dundee over the last ten years.
My belief is that over the longer term people have moved from the Highlands and Island to the cities. Certainly I get the impression that lots of places in the H&I would welcome a few hundred enterprising types arriving.
According to the Oracle of Wiki Glasgow had a population of 1.1 million in the 1950's and now has a population 600k.
I think quite a lot of the dense slum housing was knocked down during the 1960's but I guess if you have a city that used to twice the people in it there might be room for a few hundred thousand Returning Scots.
