Denver Quality Movers
Most Moves are Short-Distance
Nearly half – 49% — of between-county moves are less than 100 miles. Most of these, in fact, are very short moves: 38% of between-county moves are less than 50 miles. Another quarter are 100-500 miles, and the remaining quarter are more than 500 miles. Remember that these are among between county moves only, not within-county moves, which are two-thirds of all domestic moves.
Why isn’t migration more lopsided toward counties with more jobs and cheaper housing? Because there are lots of reasons people move, and many of them are personal, such as to be closer to (or farther away from!) family. Furthermore, because home prices vary neighborhood-to-neighborhood, people in search of more affordable housing can usually find it by moving within their county, and these Census data include only between-county moves. Still, even with all the personal reasons people move, there are clear patterns to migration. Americans are moving toward lower density, more jobs, and cheaper housing – which favor the suburbs.
