This makes sense. During the height of covid, houses would sell in the Phoenix metro within a day or two. A for sale sign comes up, two days later a sold sign shows up. A month later there would be a u haul truck and a Tesla with a CA licence plate on it in front of the house.
Edit: Jokes aside, very interesting map

The state of Ohio is incorrectly colored for Ohio (light blue) but the label says WV.
scoop813 on
Most surprising for me is Ohio’s answer being West Virginia.
West Virginia is just such a small state, and Ohio a big one. You would think Michigan, Illinois, Pennsylvania, or Indiana would all send more people to Ohio than WV. Even Kentucky since the Cincinnati metro is shared between two states.
Perhaps lots of people from WV move to Ohio for economic opportunities.

I live in Missouri and have a neighbor from California and everyone just calls her “California” like it’s a slur.

Isn’t the grey (the last color in the legend) just “other”? That’s the only colored label that’s inconsistent

Colorado is in shambles. The real new natives are from California not Texas

A lot of these can be explained with metro areas that spill over state lines. Meaning people aren’t necessarily moving outside their home metro area, but moving to a different part of town sends them across state lines:
Wyoming – Front Range urban corridor spills over from Colorado
Nebraska – Omaha metro is shared between Iowa and Nebraska
Kansas – Kansas City metro is shared with Missouri
Missouri and Illinois – share St. Louis metro with each other
Mississippi – Memphis metro spills over from Tennessee
Kentucky – Cincinnati metro spills over from Ohio
North Dakota – Fargo metro is shared with Minnesota
Indiana and Wisconsin – Chicago metro spills over from Illinois
South Carolina – Charlotte metro spills over from North Carolina
New Jersey and Connecticut – NYC metro spills over from NY
Rhode Island and New Hampshire – Boston metro spills over from Massachusetts
Maryland and Delaware – Philly metro spills over from Pennsylvania

Everywhere I’ve lived I meet people from Ohio. It’s like our missionary state.

Texas people: I love oppressive heat and tornadoes in the summer and crippling ice storms in the winter, but I want everything else to be worse. What you got?

Do you have source data? Really curious what 2nd or 3rd is for some of these.

How much of the dominance of California in the West is just explained by California being far and away the most populous state? Like even if people from Washington and people from California were moving to Texas at the exact same rate, that still means over 4 times as many Californians would end up in Texas

This gets posted a pretty often, a few of the states on the map are flat out wrong, and the color scheme is all jacked up. Downvote and move on.

California is sending their people outward to sow chaos and destabilize governments, soon they will control everything west of the Mississippi and no one will dare challenge them
And then they will turn our kids into gays!

No surprise about IL. Property taxes are ridiculous and the state is going downhill.
