GROWING! NC is growing. Once again, the Carolinas have ranked among the top moving destinations in the country for families relocating for jobs and retirement, Oregon ranks at No. 1 ... South Carolina ranks at No. 2.. followed closely by North Carolina at No. 3… In a survey of its customers, United found that 41 percent of people moving to North Carolina were doing so for a new job. New Jersey, New York and Connecticut topped the list of states with the highest percentage of outbound moves for the third consecutive year. With economic stability growing nationally, the current migration patterns reflect longer-term trends of movement to the southern and western states, especially to those where housing costs are relatively lower, climates are more temperate and job growth has been at or above the national average, among other factors, states Michael Stoll, economist, professor and chair of the Department of Public Policy at the University of California, Los Angeles. Unique amenities such as outdoor recreation, arts and entertainment activities, and green space protection likely continue to propel Oregon to the top of the list for the second straight year.
