State-to-State Geographic Mobility: Migration Flows in 2010

In 2010, state-by-state net movers, people who moved to a residence in a different state compared to state of residence one year earlier, ranged from -129,239 net movers from California to 74,919 net movers into Texas. These data are based on the 2009 American Community Survey. See related 2009 state-to-state migration section.

The American Community Survey (ACS) asks respondents age 1 year and over whether they lived in the same residence 1 year ago. For people who lived in a different residence, the location of their previous residence is collected. The state-to-state migration flows are created from tabulations of the current state (including the District of Columbia) of residence crossed by state of residence 1 year ago.

Updates. This section updates with new state to state migration estimates based on ACS 2011 on December 10, 2012.

Use the interactive ranking table ranking table provided below to rank states based on the number of movers between states. These data are based on the 2010 ACS 1 year estimates and released in November 2011. The data reflect movers during calendar year 2010. These data are estimates; smaller estimates are subject to a relatively high margin of error.

Using the Ranking Table
The rows in each table represent the state of current residence.
"Pop 1yr+" shows the population age 1 year and over.
The next 4 columns show a summary of movers across all states.
  • WithinSt is all movers who moved from one place in that state to elsewhere in the same state.
  • Inbound is the sum of all movers into that state from another state.
  • Outbound is the sum of all movers out of that state to another state.
  • NetMovers is inbound movers less outbound movers.
State columns (columns 7 to end) represent the state of residence 1 year ago. For example, an estimated 3,013 persons moved from Alaska to Alabama. The cells where the current residence and residence 1 year ago are in the same state are the estimated number of people who moved within the state. To view the number of movers in California from 1 year ago (column) to the current state of residence (row), click the CA column header for an ascending ranked view, and click that column header again for a descending ranked view.
