California, New York suffer biggest resident losses in 2022 as Americans flee high-state taxes
Republican-controlled states saw an influx of residents in 2022 as the exodus from high-tax states accelerated.
A growing number of Americans migrated from predominantly blue states with steep taxes like California and New York to red states with lower taxes like Florida and Texas last year, according to new data from the National Association of Realtors (NAR).
Florida saw the biggest rush of new residents, with about 319,000 Americans relocating there in 2022. That amounts to a population increase of nearly 2% – well above the 0.4% national growth rate recorded in the U.S. between July 2021 and July 2022.
Other red states that led in population growth include Texas, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Arizona and Idaho.
And Maryland ranks around 40th worse state to live in. Maryland is not exactly retiree friendly.
They still TAX Retirees in dirty Democrat State MARYLAND !!!!!!! Needs to CHANGE
I hope the people that are moving like that leave their liberal voting tendencies behind as well!
I would hate for their new homes to become just like the ones they left!
Agreed 10:38 !! Don’t turn the state ypu moved to into a liberal hellhole like what you fled from!
Most of them VOTED for high taxes.
Now they got what they asked for and it’s such a problem, they moved.
Now, they want to move to other places and bring that liberal BS with them.
Wait until they find out the cost of living and cost of homes in Florida is insanely high.
Florida has alot of Crime !!! Ms-13 & the like !!!!! Alot of Low pay Jobs !!! But No Income Tax or Retiree Tax !!!!!!
