I will admit that I'm still trying to figure this one out. A new study regarding people choosing to move to California suddenly includes thousands from Missouri. How can this be?
Illinois has become infamous for the number of people who are choosing to leave the Land of Lincoln. But, did you know that Illinois is also seeing an influx of people choosing to call it home from an unexpected place. Why the heck is Illinois being invaded by so many bums people from New Jersey anyway?
I understand that many people over the past few years have decided that Illinois is not their cup of tea. I get it. However, I am in a state of shock at the state that they leave the Land of Lincoln for the most. In just one year, more than 35,000 Illinoisans decided to depart for the wackiest state in America.
There's an invasion underway and it's coming from an unexpected place. Did you know that nearly 20,000 residents of one state invaded Illinois in the past year and it's not California.
Hey, where's everyone going so fast? That must be what the state of Illinois must be thinking as the exodus of citizens continues. I just found new data that shows 4 Illinois cities had a total of more than 100,000 people leave in just 3 short years.
I get it, but there are also some aspects of this survey that I don't understand. Illinois is once again tops in America for the sheer number of people that are leaving. Let's look at the science and data and also some opinions about why many believe this is true.
I am embarrassed to admit that I'm truly surprised by this. Brand new moving data has just been released for 2024 and it shows a shocking number of movers who are now choosing to move to Missouri.
I don't think I'd ever be brave enough to leave Missouri for good. But, there are many that are making that choice and they're not just moving out of state. Some are moving to a foreign country and they're giving tips on the best places to land if that's something you're thinking about.
I was born and raised in Missouri and live there now. Normally I would recommend that anyone and everyone consider making it their home state, too. But, there are some people who really should pay attention to red flags that are a sign that Missouri is not meant for you.
