Introduction: Colombia today is experiencing one of its greatest social problems such as the migration of families to inter-municipal and inter-departmental level, making it necessary to characterize the total risk factor in these families in order to be intervened. Material and Methods: Cross-sectional quantitative study, where 70 migrant families were selected, the sample was formed by 344 individuals, who lived adjacent to a neighborhood at the Soledad municipality. Total Family Risk Instrument (TFR 5-33) from Pilar Amaya was used. The categories were: socio-demographic, risk factors and total risk. Results: The main risk factors that contribute to situate the migrant family in high risk were: housing conditions and neighborhood with 59%, economic situation with 24% and emotional conditions with 14%, finally. Risk factors with low frequently were health service and practice with 10% and child breeding with 10%. Discussion: Although government is developing plans directed toward migrant families, they have been affected by housing infrastructure problems and socio-economic situation, which are reflected in their health. Conclusions: Migrant families with high risk show that components of these variables are independent statistically, but the observed behavior may be the result or similar causal effects.
