"Florida City Tops U-Haul's 2023 Most-Moved-To Destinations List"

The Palm Bay-Melbourne area in Florida was the top destination for movers in 2023, as reported by U-Haul, marking the state's seventh consecutive year of significant growth. The report, which tracks one-way U-Haul equipment rentals, showed that over half of the traffic was inbound to the area. While this data doesn't directly correlate to population or economic growth, it reflects the region's attractiveness, bolstered by job creation from companies like Embraer and SpaceX, a lower cost of living, and a pleasant climate. Florida dominated the list with seven markets in the top 25 growth cities, with Ocala following closely behind Palm Bay-Melbourne.

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.

Despite a slight increase in arrivals, Michigan's overall position remains near the bottom, though it has improved from its previous No. 48 ranking. The report aligns with U.S. Census data showing Michigan's population decline, particularly in its most populated cities. Contrastingly, states like Texas and Florida lead as top growth states, while California continues to experience the largest net loss.
