The states people are fleeing in 2014
Forbes via MSN ^ | February 13, 2014 | Susan Adams

More people are moving out of New Jersey than are moving in. The same is true for Illinois and New York. Those three states top the "outbound" list compiled by United Van Lines, the big St. Louis-based moving company that has put together an annual survey of where Americans are moving for the last 37 years.

The company analyzed a total of 125,000 moves across the 48 continental states and the District of Columbia in 2013 and came up with a picture of migration patterns across the U.S.

According to Professor Michael Stoll, chair of the Department of Public Policy at the University of California Los Angeles and a consultant to United Van Lines who studies American migration, the moves reflect long-term shifts in the U.S. economy and the hit to employment in many states resulting from the slow recovery.

Of the top nine states where more people moved out than moved in, four are in the Northeast: In addition to New Jersey and New York, Connecticut (No. 5) and Massachusetts (No. 8) make the list. The list also reflects Americans’ desire to leave the frigid states in the north for warmer climes. "Over the last 20-30 years there has been a general shift of the population from the Midwest and Northeast to the South and West, which we think of as a move from the frost belt to the sun belt," Stoll says.

Saw a funny acronym yesterday for Cary, NC:

‘Containment Area for Relocated Yankees’

Pertinent information! Be so advised and be according governed ¿. Can you say urban sprawl.

They’ve practically destroyed OR and now they want to bury the dead body.

ARGH!!!

“Where are all the fleeing people moving? Oregon is at the top of the moving-in list, with 61 percent more coming than going. Stoll chalks this up in part to folks leaving the more populous neighboring state of California, where housing costs are relatively high. “Oregon is gaining both older and younger people,” he says.”

I think urban ooze might be more apt.

Washington is nice enough if you can avoid King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties. Those are the big three big Blue tails that wag the otherwise Reddish dog. Nine Blue counties in 2012, 30 Red ones.

I did that once. In Texas, because they had no idea of how to drive on snow.

Laughed my but off when they drove into the ditch at 90MPH. The crew listened after that.

But as one explained to me, Nebraska isn’t the same as “Up North”.

Which they had to learn the hard way.

We laughed our buts off that day.

I must admit,I was a bit of an a hole back then. Every time the Texas boys started talking about the War of Northern Aggression, I would ask what happened when they tried to invade New Mexico and walked into a blind canyon, lined with cannons.

Of great value for those considering a future move would be examining a propective county to see where inbounds are coming from, like NYC or Shitcago, or LA. Might change moving plans to find out it has been infested.

See wha you mean about Cook county. That is Shitcago, right?

Clicking on most any southeast Florida county is enough to scare you off, and explain why FL went for Obunghole. Looks like most of NY moved there.

As Oliver Wendell Douglas so aptly put it “farm living is the life for me”
Respite adinfinitum ~ that is, excluding the obama years which are (not so incidentally) a depredation of this nation including my “country”

Liberals mess up a state then move to one the conservatives have kept right - then try to change it to the way “we did it back home.”

That sure is what is happening in Virginia. The liberals from, I presume, northern states, are moving into northern Virginia for the jobs in Washington and bringing their voting habits with them. As a result, Virginia now has a Rat governor and two Rat senators. If things continue along this way, mine eyes are starting to be cast upon the Real South for future residence.

First they leave the Democrat bankrupt and ruined cities and move to the towns/suburbs where they demand "big government" and more services that lead to higher taxes that then bankrupt the town.

Notice to all LIBs/DIMs : Please stay out of Utah...it is mostly a hot, windy, treeless wasteland full of gun-wielding Conservatives. Don't waste your time. Thank you.

The list also reflects Americans’ desire to leave the frigid  totalitarian  states ..
