Where did you come from friend!

The interactive map at the following link shows where people moved from and where they are coming from.

Data is from 2008 and reflects moves of 10 or more.

Pretty cool!

It takes a while to load (...especially at 10Mbps) but it's worth it.

Try clicking on a few of the military towns -Norfolk, San Diego, Fayettville etc.). My adopted hometown in upstate NY was wa-ay more 'out' than 'in' -I'd like to think I contributed to that somehow!

I couldn't figure out how to display net growth (moves in vs. moves out) but JoCo had a lot more lines in than lines out and a lot of them were in state moves.

 

Yeah, Gomer, I noticed that Johnston County had a lot more coming than going. It is a really interesting map.

wow

 

My thoughts, exactly, when I first saw Johnston County's map. :lol::lol:

wake county is even worse

 

Wake co looks like a five year old was handed a sharpie.

 

The yankees come here to avoid high taxation/big government and then push for it here.

 

I'm sorry- I didn't see that data on the chart. Where did you find it?

 

It wasn't on the chart. Does that mean it isn't true?

It might not be fair to say "all" yankees do but a lot of them do for sure.

 

I'd like to see a map that shows the amount of people moving here when Northerners said you were an idiot to move here, and, when the economy wasn't rape worthy?

 

--The Detroit map is really sad.
