US Census Data on Moving Habits and YPs
Posted (admin) in Uncategorized on September-6-2008

Interesting US Census data on moving habits of Americans… Just over 10% of Americans move each year and only about 3% roughly would boost our region’s net population. That is why we must retain what we have.

Between 2006 and 2007, 38.7 million people moved in the United States: 25.2 million stayed in the same county, 7.4 million moved to a different county within the same state, 4.9 million moved to a different state and 1.2 million moved to the U.S. from abroad.

People who were ages 20 to 24 and 25 to 29 had the highest moving rates (27 percent and 26 percent) in 2007. The majority in both age groups moved within the same county (66 percent and 63 percent). Neither of the comparisons within these age groups was statistically different from the other.

Also, this stat of YPs is encouraging, that so many are moving, but two-thirds move within the same county. Again, the competition for YPs to move into your region each year is incredibly stiff.

    There's a mobility window but it isn't infinite. This fits historical patterns. Even Joe Cortright back in Portland when the whole Y&R line of research opened up was advocating a strategy of acquisition and lock in.

    I think those people who were ages 20 to 24 and 25 to 29 had the highest moving rates (27 percent and 26 percent) in 2007. The majority in both age groups moved within the same county (66 percent and 63 percent). Neither of the comparisons within these age groups was statistically different from the other.

    Interesting case study. With the recent economic recession, the increase in the numbers of people moving out of the U.S. is expected but I hope it won't result in such last resort. Patience and perseverance is the way to go and moving out of the country is just like giving up on hope.
