ST. LOUIS (AP) - The 36th annual
United Van Lines migration study is out, and the northeastern U.S.
is once again seeing the most outbound movement.
The St. Louis-based moving company tracks the states its customers move to
and from over the course of a year, including Washington,
D.C., but excluding Alaska
and Hawaii. For 2012, the states
with the highest percentages of outbound movement were, in order, New
Jersey, Illinois,
West Virginia, New
York and New Mexico.
The District of Columbia had
the highest percentage of people moving in, followed by Oregon,
Nevada, North
Carolina and South Carolina.
Economist Michael Stoll says the study generally shows a movement of people
to Sun Belt states in the South and West.
Missouri trended toward the
outbound, ranking 16th-highest in percentage moving out.
