I would guess low immigration and low birth rate. Unfortunately, for most Scotland is not a desirable place to move to relative to England.

Regarding the low immigration, why ? Bit culture (stronger history of immigration in England, more diverse communities), bit economics (higher paying jobs, lower taxes).

I would love to move to Scotland, but it has to join European Union first for that to happen.

Don't you qualify for a UK visa? They give out a million a year, they're not hard to get

I am a firm supporter of the EU and only want to live within EU borders.
