In a state long known as a haven for transplants from elsewhere in the country, Mohave County stands as having the lowest percentage of adult native-born residents than anywhere else in Arizona, as well as the second smallest native population in the entire country.

Governing magazine did an analysis of what percentage of every American county’s population was born in the state, and Mohave County had just 8.1 percent of its adult population born in Arizona. That gives Mohave the second-lowest percentage of native-born residents of any county in the lower 48 states, and third in the United States as a whole.
