Americans Can't Wait To Get Out Of These Five States
A low cost of living, no sales tax, and beautiful scenery (oh, naked bike rides, more strip clubs per capita than any other US city, and legalized weed) means Oregon is the "top moving destination" for Americans for the third year running, according to United Van Lines, with 69% of moves inbound. But, which states are Americans leaving in droves?
Americans continue to pack up and head West and South, according to new data from United Van Lines.
Oregon is the most popular moving destination of 2015 with 69 percent of moves to and from the state being inbound. The state has continued to climb the ranks, increasing inbound migration by 10 percent over the past six years. New to the 2015 top inbound list is another Pacific West state, Washington, which came in at No. 10 with 56 percent inbound moves.
Moving In - The top inbound states of 2015 were:
- Oregon
- South Carolina
- Vermont
- Idaho
- North Carolina
- Florida
- Nevada
- District of Columbia
- Texas
- Washington
The Northeast continues to experience a moving deficit with New Jersey (67 percent outbound) and New York (65 percent) making the list of top outbound states for the fourth consecutive year. Two other states in the region — Connecticut (63 percent) and Massachusetts (57 percent) — also joined the top outbound list this year. The exception to this trend is Vermont (62 percent inbound), which moved up two spots on the list of top inbound states to No. 3.
Moving Out - The top outbound states for 2015 were:
- New Jersey
- New York
- Illinois
- Connecticut
- Ohio
- Kansas
- Massachusetts
- West Virginia
- Mississippi
- Maryland
Simply put, Americans are moving from heavily-regulated, bureaucratic, high cost-of-living states to more affordable states.
This year's data from United Van Lines...

And the interactive version from the last 39 years...
Finally, as The Daily Signal concludes,
Moving patterns show how important cost of living is to American families.
With perfect weather and a booming, high-tech economy, California ought to be the #1 destination. Instead, more moving trucks are leaving the state than entering.

If you'd like some answers to your questions read my old comments.
My question to you is what makes you think you live in a Republic?
Comments get an eyeball here, sometimes a little more.
Your old comments are Interweb dust.
Act accordingly.
And all them that voted for those liberal socialist are heading to the state they will destroy next! Think Locust! Make sure when they come to your state that you check them quickly, and do not be shy about! Let them know right away to leave their voting practice behind in that ass wiped state you left you fucking retard!
Work on you reading comprehension and stop hallucinating socialists. However, this article is one long logical fallacy so you are better off not reading it at all.

They bring their insanity with them! Not welcome.
Not exactly; New Jersy is run by morons.
So long as they check their luggage and make sure to bring none of those invasive little insects with them -sort of like California does with fruit (but not with 'undocumented persons of unconventional entry' or whatever the Newspeak phrase of the day is.)
California is an awesome state. Probably the best after Hawaii.
I have nostalgia for the place and never lived there.
Why not write a check to their taxing authority, just to show your T-shirt support?
We roadtrip there just to see the Worlds Biggest Ball Of Methane.
Did you also stay @ a bud'n'breakfast so your whole family could get high together?? What about visiting a porn shoot, catching a moneyshot or 2?
The next time that you are pulled over by the California Highway Patrol and are asked by the cop why he pulled you over...as if you are a mind reader or something like that...just respond that he is asking you for a donation to the California Highway Patrolman's ball.
When the officer responds that the California Highway Patrol doesn't have balls...well...
Nice.
Send me an address where I can send gas money and some Roman Candles...
Which dick weasels downvoted Scooby Doo?
If he can prove he's an actual, talking dog, then I'll go back and upvote every entry he's ever made. Otherwise, the Sesame Street forum is over to the right.
Probably all the guys with 'ghost' in their names.

It's a good thing TM ,we have our own safe space for our own special Snowflakes here at Zero Hedge.
So you're telling me that fucker is baiting us? Shit, if so then he's basically MDB on steroids. Makes sense when looking at some of the crap he's posted.

50 +
1. chicago
2. wherever barrack obama and timmay were born.
3. Guam (might capsize if we put a military base there)
4. Haitian earthquake 501c3s, 501c4s, and probably the articles of incorporation of the IRS itself.
5. Puerto Rico
6. ????
7. Military base of your choice.
But I am not a professor of constitutional law or a community organizer.
+10 for remembering how "tippy" that congressman thought Guam was. And how that military guy kept a straight face I will never understand. Hope he got a promotion just for that.
that specific interaction should turn the sarc tag off anybody who understands the MIC and the taxcode an how stupid you have to be to accept the religion of human secularism. Or send send Tributes to washington D.C. for the entertainment value.
Congressman Hank Johnson fears Guam will tip over, March 25, 2010https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7XXVLKWd3Q
The moar amazing thing to me was what happened to me at that time.
I was in a local Walmart, and the cashier happened to be a young woman from Guam. I said to her, something along the lines of, "Wasn't that crazy that a congressman was worried that Guam might tip over from more military bases?".
She looked at me a little odd, and said "Well, there are a lot of military bases on Guam".
I let it go....
+1 I am totally agnostic to the idea that Hank Johnson was cold selling a pile of bullshit. There are many legitimate commentators that will back him up on that.
But I am not agnostic about Hank Paulson rolling tanks on the streets during the 2008 crisis if taxpayers wont pay record bonuses to bankers. If you know what I mean ...
Oregon and Washington State have the most beautiful coastlines for people who love the ocean.
No mention in the article of the hideous Mexican gangs in Oregon which have moved up from California. In point of fact, Southern California is poisoning the entire Northern Pacific Coast. Seattle is now a "refuge city" for illegal immigrants. What a fucking waste.
Go here for your astronomical needs, and do visit Oregon and Washington State, such utterly beautiful places to be found:

Ive been all over those States on a motorcycle, your totally correct on those coastlines and Mexican gangs. It is sad.
He made a mistake when he announced it early. 51-57 states are Canada, Mexcio, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama.
Oregon. Aka Oregano, aka Oregun.
Micro-brew, micro-distill Central. Hunting, fishing, crabbing. Outdoory stuff. Solar Panels, Wind farms. Orchards, Vineyards. Fair amount of high tech and Mfg.
Oregon is pretty tolerant, but we don't like them Muzzies at all. Thankfully we got the Russians and Ukes to keep Muzzies out.
Best place to live: Vancouver, WA. No State Income Tax.
Best place to shop: Across the river in OR. No Sales Tax. Bitchez. Sshhhh, don't the the riff-raff.
Unfortunately, the weather in Vancouver/Portland is only for folks who can handle interminable periods of cloud cover and rain. Too bad a guy couldn't work in Portland or Vancouver and live in Eastern Oregon. Far better weather. One of the things I like about Oregon is it straddles the 45th parallel (obviously not the only state that does!), so you get all 4 seasons and none of them are muted.
Well, a naked bike ride is a nice distraction. You might meet someone, go out for a coffee, then head back to your place and visit with your 6 "house mates"
There should be an immigration ban on people from NY and NJ... For fear of spreading cultural terrorism, of course...
No fear, they're unarmed liberals.
Those leaving NY and NJ are NOT the liberals. They want to get as far away from the liberals as possible.

I don't buy this horseshit for a second. I've watched Seattle transform from the Emerald city to a breeding ground of libtard social justice warrior neomarxist multicultural shitbirds in just 20 years. And they're all from California. Now they're trying to undo firearms laws that have been on the books since the first Norwegian settlers came to Washington State. Get the fuck out of here.
Here's the problem with libtards. They don't actually understand economics. Read Krugman. That deviant fuck doesn't actually understand economics. Most of the soft sciences are so lacking in the demand for rigor, methodology and evidence any poser can fake his way through and pull off receiving a Nobel Prize. The people handing out the Nobel Prize are fucking idiots from the same cloth. How do you think cultural Marxism has been able to spread like a fucking cancer? No one demands scientific validity. So they get away with pure horseshit.
Libtards don't actually understand economics, so they are unable to diagnose underlying economic problems successfully; the role of incentives is completely ignored and they refuse to take responsibility for their individual actions because individual responsibility is diffused across the community. That's how we all become guilty of their horseshit.
You know why Europe is embarking on a cultural genocide against itself importing the entire 3rd world? Because their other failed idea, the welfare state, based on the notion you could redistribute wealth from one group of people to another without consequences, is failing badly. Because they refuse to admit it's essentially a Ponzi scheme by nature, and again, competely ignore how incentives actually work. With declining demographics they're running out of "the next fool" to slot into the bottom rung of the Ponzi tower.... that's where Mohammed and his multicultural clique come in, and the army of Latin luck-seekers.
So don't tell me these same clueless dickbags infected with this failed ideology aren't moving to the West in ruinous herdes like a locust plague.
Lying Lefties are like mosquitoes, they suck blood from their victim, giving them a financial disease (or two), and then mindlessly follow their victim to the next feeding spot.
"...any poser can fake his way through and pull off receiving a Nobel Prize."
Uh, no. Not even close. Krugman is indeed a deviant fuck, but we've all known posers and few if any have received Nobels. But I can appreciate the sentiment.
Perhaps a Nobel Prize is difficult to obtain in the hard sciences, but in humanitarian and peace efforts, any fucktard with a smile and a billionaire backer can go home with the gold... Submitted into evidence is the bio of one Barry Soetoro... I rest my case...
Look no further than our very own White Housenigger, Nobel Peace Prize Winner, and Drone Bombardier Double Ace.
Spot on, Dr B. Progressive liberal democraps never let the truth or facts deter them from jamming their bullsht agenda down the throats of tax paying US citizens and will never accept accountability or responsibility for the outcomes of their bullsht agendas . Guess which cities in the US have the highest murder rates. Couldn't possibly be the ones with decades of progressive liberal democrap rule & entrenchment. Nahhh.... No way.. .
"Those leaving NY and NJ are NOT the liberals. They want to get as far away from the liberals as possible."
FWIW: The True NY & NJ non-liberals (aka producers) left decades ago. This wave is mostly the parasites leaving.
What your seeing is a natural process with parasites. The Liberals (Parasites) have soured the host, leaving tainted blood (exhausted/disease host). All of real the producers have left the state, so now they are stuck paying for all the crap they voted for, there are no jobs, and states are cutting back on services because they are dead broke. So the parasites are seeking out a new hosts to prey upon.
You soon see States like WA, OR, NC turn into diseased states as the Parasites relocate and start demaning all sorts of crap driving up taxes, regulation, etc. I presume in full generation (if somehow the US managed to survive) you would see a full cycle as the produced move back, once the majority the parasites have left. Although considering with the liabilites (debt, pensions) in IL, NY, CT, NJ, etc, it probably going to take couple of generations before producers would consider moving in.
As a northeaster, I can tell you I see waves of Parasites relocating to NC. Yes I am in the process of leaving the NorthEast. I been looking for a large property in another state, and planning to go galt. I just have had trouble finding good land that isn't extremely overpriced, that rural but has good internet service (plan to work remotely on a rural property). Hopefully I will find something this spring! No, I am not a parasite, since I pay considerable amount of taxes well below what I consume. I save about 80% of my after-tax income, and have no debt.
OR, they bought into the Liberalist agenda and are now broke from over taxation......
There are about 800k NY'ers that move to FL every year. Only 70K FL'ers move to NY. Single largest state-to-state migration in the country. I swear I'm the only one in my HOA that doesn't sound like a mob ganster thug. I hate the NY accent.
I lived in Tampa in '98-'99. 9/10 of the people where I worked were from up North, the rest were a mix of Southerners and Native Floridians.
The South pretty much ends from the bottom of the Panhandle over through St. Augustine. Ft. Ocala is sort of an outpost.
I live in central florida on the east coast and I hate the northern cocksuckers with a passion. When a group of them get together in a bar or wherever they really crank up the newyawk or new jersoysee accent. I almost puke. They are also the worst fucking drivers on the fucking face of the earth, bar none, esp. the really old yankee cocksuckers.
