United Van Lines is out with its 42nd Annual National Movers Study, which tracks customers’ state-to-state migration patterns over the past year, and, like other surveys of its kind, shows that Americans are headed south and west, but not to California. It also revealed that more residents moved out of New Jersey than any other state in 2018, with 66.8% of New Jersey moves being outbound. Not coincidently, New Jersey boasts one of the highest rates of taxation in the nation.
The study also found that the state with the highest percentage of inbound migration was Vermont (72.6%), with 234 total moves. Oregon, which had 3,346 total moves, experienced the second highest percentage nationally, with 63.8% inbound moves.
