New Jersey tops the list of states losing people in masses. It is the state of corrupt cops, corrupt government and corrupt judiciary. Because of the mass exodus of wealthy residents (as they try to avoid the onerous New Jersey Estate Tax), the corrupt New Jersey government allowed tens of thousands of illegals and middle eastern Muslims and Africans to flood the state.

Americans are a mobile population, generally comfortable with the idea of moving away from their childhood homes for college, jobs, new ventures or to be closer to family. Some people in the military or corporate jobs have moved as often as every two years.
Knowing the states that people are moving out of can help insurance agents and brokers plan for the potential loss of clients who relocate to another state. It can also help those agents and brokers provide the best information available to their clients as they transition from one state to another.

It’s important for insurance agents and brokers to review moving patterns because when large numbers of people move away from an area, the situation has a ripple effect on the city or state’s economy. Marginal small businesses — which often make up a majority of a small agency’s clients — could go under from a lack of customers, resulting in one less client for the agency.
United Van Lines, based in Fenton, Missouri, which moves people locally, nationally and internationally, has been tracking which states people are moving to and from for 40 years. They also survey their customers to understand why they’ve chosen to relocate from one state to another.
“This year’s data clearly reflects retirees’ location preferences,” said Michael A. Stoll, economist, professor in the Department of Public Policy at the University of California, Los Angeles. “We are seeing more retirees than ever decide to relocate, and as a result, new retirement hubs are popping up in Western and Southern states. Interestingly enough, these retirees are leaving at such a fast pace that the movement of millennials to urban areas is being overshadowed.”
Here are the top outbound states of 2016, according to United Van Lines’ survey:
