Yunlin County (Mandarin pinyin: Yúnlín Xiàn; Taigi POJ: Hûn-lîm-koān; Hakka PFS: Yùn-lìm-yen) is a county in western Taiwan under the administration of the nominal Taiwan Province, Republic of China.[2] Yunlin County borders the Taiwan Strait to the west, Nantou County to the east, Changhua County to the north at the Zhuoshui River, and Chiayi County to the south at the Beigang River. It has a population of 664,963 as of 2022.
Yunlin is part of the Chianan Plain, a flat land known for its agriculture. Agricultural products of Yunlin County include pomelo, tea leaves, suan cai, papaya and melon. Yunlin's rivers give it potential for hydroelectricity. Douliu is the largest and capital city of Yunlin. It is the only county on the main island of Taiwan where no city with the same name exists. Yunlin is one of the least developed counties on the West coast, and suffers from emigration.[3]

According to the Taiwan government's internal migration data, Yunlin County is one of the regions with the largest emigration. About 400,000 Yunlin County's residents moved to new Taipei county. The people from the Yunlin county organized the Yunlin Association of New Taipei City. This study focused on these Yunlin Association members. Why the group of people from the same hometown are differing within later social mobility. This study is trying to verify either the social network or the human capital is the main factor behind it.
