Americans Are Ditching These Five States In Record Numbers

Apparently surging violent crime, massive tax hikes and insolvent public pensions are bad for attracting new residents...who knew? On the other hand, 364 days of sunshine per year, minimal crime, brand new infrastructure and some of the lowest tax rates in the country seems to be, to our complete shock, somewhat appealing to folks looking to relocate.

But that is just a couple of many interesting takeaways to be gleaned from the latest annual "U.S. Migration Report" from North American Moving Services which found that Illinois was the most ditched state in 2017.

this has been going on for decades.. Oregon is the number one in migration of CA residents.. I is one.

but I is not going to go to NV  were there is not state income tax.  LOL.

and people have been leaving the northern cold states for warm states in a reverse migration for the last 40 years as well..

CA will be just fine.. you cannot have all the jobs and economy there and the best weather literally in the world.. and some of the finest young minds in the world.. just not going to fall off a cliff for all those that leave you have others coming in to replace.
