      And I thought the upper Midwest was supposed to be one of the best places of live based on future climate change…what up with Wisconsin?

      Florida is one Katrina away from going the way of Louisiana. Climate change is going to have a big say in these forecasts – i.e Utah is already running out of water.

      Redditors on their way to tell us that this is absolutely wrong and people are happily moving back to the rust belt where there’s tons of demand for work:

      Zero consideration for climate migration. I don’t think people realize how ugly things are going to get.

      I just moved to Washington. No income tax and I live on the border of Oregon; no sales tax.

      Remind me in 25; when climate change has wrought havoc on those growing States:).

      Still amazed that everyone is sleeping on WV, is there a reason it’s not more popular? I know it’s extremely conservative politically but it’s got some of the cheapest real estate in the country, is close to numerous major cities, beautiful mountains.

      Vermonters (if you really exist), tell me if I’m crazy here, but I’ve wanted to move to your state for like the last 5 years. Looks dope. Surprised to see numbers in the negative.

      Is this just a linear extrapolation from the last 5 years? This kind of projection is basically meaningless

      Who in their right mind is moving to Arizona or Florida? 113 straight 100 degree+ days last year in Phoenix The climate fueld storm outlook for FL is so bad that over 20 insurance companies have stopped selling HOI. And, it is only going to get worse.

      Very optimistic. Do they know how hot it will be in 2050. Texas will basically be a hot desert by then, Florida will be uninsurable because of the constant flooding, Texas will be hotter than mercury. People will migrate to the Midwest for cheaper housing, better weather and homes that are actually insured

      While I respect Weldon Cooper a lot, these type of long term projections are guesswork at best. Climate change is coming to wreck communities across the globe. Anyone predicting WI and MI to lose population don’t realize how well situated they are to handle climate change.

      Texas and Florida…

      I honestly think people may be sleeping on Illinois/Michigan/Wisconsin aka Great Lake states. With climate change, being right next to massive fresh lakes are going to be a +. Also if temperatures increase, those states will be livable

      No way Wyoming and Montana are that low, or Oregon that high. This seems like it’s from 10 years ago

    28. Meanteenbirder on

      Which states increase/decrease congressional districts

      Increase: Texas, Florida, Nevada, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Washington, Oregon, Georgia, Arizona

      Decrease: New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Wisconsin, Missouri, Illinois, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Rhode Island, Kentucky.

      If you’re looking for an even-ish state that has a lot of population change under the hood, look at Kansas. The eastern metros are booming, especially KC, while the west is being all but deserted. If you look at a map of the difference in net votes between Trump 2020 and 2024, west Kansas is one of the few places where it DECREASED purely from population decline.

    31. wombatgeneral on

      No way Texas is getting 8.6 million more people in 25 years.

      Texas summers are already pretty brutal and climate change is going to make them hotter and longer. What would happen if there was a statewide blackout during a heatwave?

    32. DizzyDentist22 on

      So I guess one of the big takaways from this is what are Colorado, Washington, Oregon, and Nevada doing that the other Blue States aren’t? They’re the only ones with significant projected population growth

    33. Beneficial_Equal_324 on

      Alabama grew by about 580,000 from 2000 to 2020 (13% gain). 105,000 gain over the next 25 years (2%) seems low.

      Moral of the story between this and the Supreme Court shredding the Voting Rights Act, Democrats will never control the House again.

    35. Thrill0728 on

      This is also assuming absolutely nothing changes and absolutely nothing goes wrong.

      As for states like Flordia and Texas…I can think of things that can go majorly wrong.

    39. cactideas on

      lol who’s moving to North Dakota. Most people are usually trying to escape.

      I call utter bs on this map. Wrong forum for climate change I know, but in this case it’s apt.

      Just cuz in recent years people are flocking to the sun belt don’t make it so in the future when insurance costs are impossible or even unavailable and 100 degrees days are 200 a year or there’s flat not enough water.

      The mix will vary by state, but I say the Great lakes region is the great refuge, conditions enviable the world over when shit hits the fan. Fun stat, 20 percent of earths surface freshwater is there and those states are emptying?

      Any forecasting longer than like 10 to 15 years is just imaging the current trends continuing forever which is most likely not the case
