TimesUnion: United Van Lines reported Tuesday that nearly two-thirds of the moves involving New York households were outbound, a higher proportion than any other state except New Jersey and Illinois.
The 2016 National Movers Study by Fenton, Mo.- based United also found that almost 59 percent of the moves within the eastern United States were outbound.
Where were people moving? Mostly to western states and the Carolinas, with one exception. That exception was Vermont, which ranked second on the list of states with the highest proportion — 67 percent — of inbound moves.
South Dakota had the highest share of inbound moves, at 68 percent. MORE
“a higher proportion than any other state except New Jersey and Illinois.”
Ugh, with three kids in High school I have lead balls chained to each leg. One labelled “N” and the other “J”. If I can keep them out of our state school for college, “Rutgers”, I may be outta here within 5 years!
Rats fleeing a sinking ship?
Speaking of moving…

Scary thing is where are these progressives moving to???
……aaaaand they will bring their crap ideas with them.
Dont let them settle anywhere and move them along to Cuba.
If this keeps up, Blah-Z-Oh is going to be as lonely as the Maytag repairman.
The bad news, is they are moving to Flawwwrida! And [probably votin’ Democrat in TWO places, now.
As other commenters have mentioned I suspect that they will bring their east coast liberal values with them wherever they settle. I’ll bet the reason most are leaving is solely economic. They can’t afford to live in their left wing paradise anymore and are being shoved out by progressives with more money. I hope wherever they settle and try to propagate their destructive beliefs they are educated right quick by the residents.
At least they wont be coming to Alabama. They hate us too much! (thank God)
Americans don’t like to pay high taxes for imbecilic government, from local to Federal.
High taxes? Check. Business unfriendly? Check. Efforts to restrict personal freedoms? Check. Lots of “tolerant” progressives? Check. High cost of living? Check. Political class out of touch with common folk? Check.
The sad thing is that progressives won’t realize their policies are making these states undesireable. Instead of refocusing their policies, my guess is that they will resort to importing immigrants to make up the balance – not necessarily because they want to, but because they have to.
Or… we could club down all the ‘progressives’ in government that are trashing these formerly fine places…..
Let’s hope they will leave their progressive past behind and not infect the new community.
yep; I’ve been seeing a lot of out of state license plates on cars in my redneck of the woods lately. PA (damn shoobies), NJ (damn Shoobies), Illin-ois, NY.
If they are rational pro-capitalism, pro-Constitution looking for a better life, then WELCOME. But if they are leftist assholes looking to spread their cancerous PC hate, then GTFO and don’t come back.
First sign of a Yankee invasion is at the local city council meetings where some fucktard rears up on his hind legs and says “I’m from (insert evil Northern state here) and we managed things better Up North”. The proper response is “if you liked it so damn much Up North then you need to GTFO of here and go back up there”
We’re leaving California faster.
And we’re bring our guns with us.
they will bring their rat race mentality with them , as well as nonsensical liberal ideas . Remember (if old enough) CALIFORNIA the great beautiful state and all the freindly natives ?.
Beware all of you as this is exactly what happend to US in the 70s & 80s here in California – we didnt even see it happening , we thought they were Nuts but had no idea what would happen to California.
That’s all right, they ain’t bringin
guns and they’s stoopid and lazy.
