Beautiful state that’s way too liberal.
We have been thinking about splitting from PA and moving to a friendlier section of the country. Oregon was not on the list.
Makes sense. California has too many people and not enough water. There are 3 states which border California. Arizona is mostly desert—too many people, not enough water. Nevada is mostly desert—too many people, not enough water. Oregon has lots of water.
Excellent. Let all the libs go there. We're sick of them coming to Texas.
Another super liberal encampment.
"Collectivist hellhole (with trees), here we come!"
I think Washington maxed out as a high-destination place. So many people came here - including what seems like half the homosexuals in the country - that housing and rental prices soared and the roadways are jammed.
No state income tax in OR.
I’d have to see studies that reflect much more diverse sources than simply one mover’s data, regardless of how large the mover is.
That is if I am reading this correctly, and it is not a survey that incorporates most/all of the major movers in the US.
Eastern Oregon and eastern Washington are considered part of the “American Redoubt”. It would be interesting to see if this is where much of the influx is going, bad gun laws or not.

Why are people leaving NM and UT?
It’s an assisted-suicide state.
Old report that shows only half or less of the story. You cannot deduce complete migration patterns from the records of one moving company. Not everyone uses a mover or United Van Lines to move. Wealthy and people whose employers are paying for thier moves use moving companies. Less wealthy people move themselves using Uhaul or Budget Rent A Truck.
Stop fawning over this bad data.
You can tell it is bad data by the claim of North Dakota being an out migration state. That flies in the face of all other demographic data.
