While U-Haul’s annual migration trends offer clues to national relocation patterns, a deeper dive reveals nuances crucial for informed investment decisions. Let’s dissect the data and uncover hidden gems for investors seeking growth potential.

However, it gets more interesting when you dig into the city data (U.S. Growth Cities of 2022: Ocala Tops List as Families Flock to Florida | U-Haul (uhaul.com)). While Ocala, Florida, takes the top spot, Sacramento, California takes second place for most moves on the growth city list. In fact, a Texas city doesn’t hit the list until spot 13. As you can see on the map below, which shows population increases (green) and declines (red), it isn’t as if all of Texas is bright green, or all of California is red. In fact, if you look closely, areas of Dallas have seen declines as people move to neighboring suburbs, and many areas of Southern California are experiencing tremendous growth. Let’s look closer at some of the various state maps to see why these lists aren’t always as they seem.

Key Insights:

Urban Magnets: Despite state-level growth, some cities within those states are experiencing decline. Focus on urban centers with consistent job growth and rising populations, like Sacramento in California.

Beyond Sun Belt Boom: While Texas and Florida dominate the state rankings, explore thriving pockets within declining states, like Bakersfield in California, experiencing positive migration trends.

Granular Data is Key: Don’t rely solely on state-level data. Utilize detailed city-level migration trends and economic indicators to identify hidden investment opportunities.
