I’m waiting for many of the big Insurance companies in CT to close up shop and find greener pastures. With the incoming Dems at all levels it is only a matter of time.

Interesting that ND is on the list. We have a housing shortage here with the influx of people working the oil fields. We also have the lowest unemployment in the country.
However, we do export a lot of our college graduates to seek their fame and fortune. Also, a large number of elderly leave the state each winter for Fla., Tx or AZ.

I am sure I would not want to move to any of those states. I guess I will stay in Wyoming, where men are men and so are some of the women.

I thought my Golden State would be first, and it’s not even on the list!

The loss of folks from Nebraska just doesn;t make sense, when there are such high unenployment rates elsewhere. here in SW Nebraska, we have an unemployment rate of 4%. It’s hard to find good workers. My company is desperately seeking welders and machine operators. The health care industry has all kinds of openings. Houses in my town sell for anywhere from $20,000 for a fixer-upper to less than $200K for a McMansion. You can get a small acerage and old farm house with out-buildings for less than $100,000. And the winters really are not that bad.

Except for Louisiana and Mississippi they’re all snowbelt. The big snowbelt exodus continues.

Doesn't reflect the whole truth.
California has people who pay taxes leaving and many who don't or are illegal both looking for welfare and that is coming in.
That stuff very dire and not reflected in an article like this one.

Yeah, Nebraska weather does suck....especially today!
But......since you have nothing to do, get out to my place and help fix fence. (and take a couple round bales out to the cattle while you're on the way)

That's better than the Mooslim enclaves such as Dearborn, where men are (supposedly) men and sheep are scared.

SW Nebraska? Anywhere near Kimball? We lived there when my dad worked on Minuteman missiles back in the 60s.

Here in NY the women are women and so are some of the men! I’m not sure which is worse.
To: discostu
Last winter was the worst one I can remember. This winter so far (excluding today) has been the mildest I can remember, I believe this is the first snow we’ve had all year.

I would love to come over and fix fence, especially since its 16 degrees with a 40 mph wind!

If you’re going to be poor, you might as well be poor in good weather. CA is probably in the middle of the pack - because its productive citizens are leaving at the same rate the parasites are entering.

I’m not implying anything. Those are the top 5 states from the article. I don’t see a commonality.

‘....the weather sucks and there is nothing to do here....’
That was my first thought. Perhaps youngsters are leaving for the same reasons they always do; opportunity and adventure.
