"U-Haul Trends Reveal 2023's Most and Least Popular States for Movers"

Oregon experienced a significant decline in the number of people moving to the state, as indicated by an 11% drop in one-way U-Haul trips in 2023. This decrease led to Oregon falling 15 places on U-Haul's annual growth index, moving from 22nd to 37th position. Despite the decline in arrivals, the number of departures also decreased, with a marginal 0.2% more customers leaving than arriving. The top growth states were Texas, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee, while California remained at the bottom of the list for the fourth consecutive year.
