"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.
