Abstract: International migration has become one of the most important social and economic factors shaping Kerala's development. Migration, especially to Gulf countries, has changed the state's economy and social structure through remittances, job creation, better living standards, and investment in education and skills. Remittances have made a real difference in reducing poverty, improving housing, increasing consumer spending, and enhancing education and health. On a larger scale, remittances account for a significant share of Kerala’s State Domestic Product and government income. This article examines how migration and remittances affect Kerala’s economy and society, drawing on data from the Kerala Migration Surveys and related research. The paper examines the economic effects of remittances, migration, education, job mobility, housing conditions, ownership of goods, and the socio-economic profiles of families with members abroad. The results show that migration has greatly improved household welfare and living standards, though it has had a limited impact on productive investment. The study concludes that migration and remittances continue to play a key role in Kerala’s development
