Middle-class movers are choosing Las Vegas, Phoenix, and San Antonio as top destinations. It was the second-most popular destination for middle-class movers coming from out of state, the report said.

AdvertisementAdvertisementHow to find Airbnb properties to manageWhen you think of Airbnb, you might think of someone who rents out their own home. AdvertisementAdvertisementFrom there I scaled up to five properties and I thought I had made it: With my five rental properties, I made $136,000 in 2022. Sometimes people have really good units, but because they are on the fourth page of Airbnb their homes aren't easily found. The process of renting out other peoples' homes is not easy, but with the right mindset, you can do it. If you have an Airbnb and would like to share your story, good or bad, email Alyshia Hull at ahull@insider.com.

She and her family considered places like Tennessee and Florida , but ultimately chose North Carolina because of its hands-off government and lush scenery. Five recent movers highlight what stands out about North Carolina, from its natural scenery to its lack of diversity. One thing she's had to get used to in North Carolina is the lack of diversity in food. An Ohio man liked North Carolina so much he moved there twiceJohn Yuschak first dipped a toe in North Carolina in 2012 after moving from Columbus, Ohio. They were pleased with the four seasons North Carolina has to offer, but anticipated higher savings.
A South Carolina state senator proposed a bill that would ask relocators to pay $500 to move there. New residents would pay $250 to register their vehicle and $250 for a new driver's license. Most states, including South Carolina, require newcomers from different states to get a new license upon arrival. It costs $25 to get a driver's license in South Carolina, which typically lasts for eight years. The bill doesn't aim to deter migration to South Carolina, Goldfinch told the committee.

San Antonio. You can buy homes for relatively cheap"A lot of people have overlooked San Antonio," Crenshaw said. January data from Redfin pegs the median home price in San Antonio at $255,000, which is less than half of Austin's $530,000. San Antonio — the fastest-growing large city in the nation between 2020 and 2021, gaining nearly 14,000 people, per census data — remains attractive to newcomers. Relocators get affordability in San Antonio, Crenshaw said, without sacrificing exciting nightlife and other big-city attractions such as museums and professional sports teams like the NBA's Spurs.
Taxes are lowerPeople leaving states like California or New York often cite high income and property taxes as key motivations for their departure. (It's not all cheap: some new Floridians have been surprised by rising property taxes.) Like Florida, Tennessee has no income tax, as well as a property tax rate well below the national average. According to financial information and advice company SmartAsset, Tennessee's median annual property tax paid is $1,317, which is about half the national average. "One of the reasons why they're considering Tennessee is because of the affordability in terms of taxes," Foster said.

Since the program began, more than 106 people have moved to Quincy, according to city data. Altogether, nearly 60% of these newcomers found jobs in industries that drive Quincy's economy, such as manufacturing, healthcare, and education.

The couple were approved for the relocation program "very quickly," Seguette said. The Great River Economic Development Foundation, a nonprofit business organization that serves all of Illinois' Adams County— which includes Quincy — is also advertising the relocation program under its "Quincy's Calling" campaign.
Florida was the top 2021 destination for movers, with 221,000 more US residents moving in than out. The leavers say the high cost of living, including skyrocketing insurance prices, is a big factor. Take car insurance: Lovelace, a private investigator who uses her car regularly for work, paid $430 a month. The state's chief financial officer, Jimmy Patronis, said in May 2021 that 900 people a day were moving to Florida. A study by Joblist that compared wages to cost of living ranked Florida last out of all 50 states in affordability.
