Kansas
Many residents are taking the yellow brick road to different states. Even though the Sunflower State has a low cost of living, low unemployment, and a comfy lifestyle, almost 64% of those who left seek jobs outside. Located in the Tornado Alley, the Sunflower State has a 58.7% outbound move rate. Many educated workers are moving out because of the lack of income growth and the awful weather.
New York
New York offers big-city living, sports, arts, wildlife, and small-town culture all at the same time. Still, the sky-high cost of living, brutal winters, high taxes, and job scarcity in rural areas do not make anyone happy. Residents are moving out to other states for retirement, employment, and family reasons. It turns out that nearly 300 people move out of NYC every single day. The outbound move rate is 61.5%.
