Americans Relocate South and Midwest for Family and Affordability in 2024
TL;DR
In 2023, the top five states Americans moved away from were California, Florida, New York, Texas, and Illinois, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. California saw the highest outflow with 690,502 residents leaving, primarily moving to Texas, Arizona, and Nevada. Despite high out-migration, states like Florida, Texas, and California also attracted many new residents, indicating high migration turnover influenced by factors such as job opportunities, housing costs, and lifestyle preferences. New York's out-migration is driven by high living costs and the shift to remote work.
