Back in frontier days 'Go West Young Man" was the slogan and according to this year's survey by United Van Lines movers it's what people are doing again. To be precise, people are moving to Oregon! For the second year in a row, Oregon saw the highest percentage of inbound moves among all U.S. states in 2014. Shakes out like this: 66 percent of the Beaver State’s 4,121 overall moves were inbound. The Carolinas tied for second with 61 percent of its moves inbound, and Vermont came in third. and Washington DC and Oklahoma tied for fourth.

Meanwhile, sorry Bruce, people can’t get out of New Jersey fast enough! New Jersey finished No. 1 for most out-bound moves for the third year in a row. New York was second at 64 percent, followed by Illinois at 63 percent.

And check this out United Van Lines says Maine is balanced! Guess they don't know us too well do they :)
