Reuters is reporting:
Leaving:
The 47th annual report by Allied Van
Lines showed that Illinois topped the list of states people are moving
away from with 1,372 net moves, followed by Pennsylvania, New York,
Michigan and New Jersey. The states have remained in the top five since
2010, the company said.
In
its 38th annual report, released Friday, United Van Lines reports that
New Jersey, New York, Illinois, North Dakota and West Virginia
represented the states their clients exited the most last year.
Illinois, where outbound moves represented 63 percent of total moves for
the state, has ranked among the top five for the past six years, the
company says.
North Dakota being on the list is counter-intuitive but there may be an explanation. But I won't speculate. But the key is the fact that South Dakota was not among the top five along with North Dakota.
Arriving:
United Van Lines said Oregon was the most
preferred destination for its clients, followed by South Carolina, North
Carolina, Vermont and Florida. The company said 38 percent of its
clients moving to Oregon were going for a new job while 29 percent cited
retirement.
Allied
clients were most likely to move to Texas, Florida, Arizona, South
Carolina and Colorado. The company said the most
popular destinations were generally the same but the number of moves has
increased with California, Oregon and Washington state showing the
greatest increases for inbound moves.
