Diese Karte zeigt den Anteil der Erwachsenen, die noch in dem US-Bundesstaat leben, in dem sie geboren wurden, basierend auf US-Volkszählungsdaten aus dem Jahr 2019.
Der Stärkste "zu Hause bleiben" Muster treten in Teilen des Mittleren Westens und Südens auf, insbesondere in Bundesstaaten wie Louisiana, Michigan, Ohio, Minnesota, Lowa und Mississippi, wo lokale Identität, familiäre Netzwerke und geringere Mobilität die Menschen oft näher an ihrem Zuhause halten. Im Gegensatz dazu weisen Bundesstaaten wie Nevada, Florida, Arizona und Teile des Westens deutlich geringere Anteile auf, was auf eine große Zahl von Neuankömmlingen aus anderen Bundesstaaten und dem Ausland zurückzuführen ist.
Mit anderen Worten: Auf dieser Karte geht es nicht nur darum, wo sich Menschen aufhalten, sondern auch darum, wohin sich Menschen bewegen.
Einige Staaten zeichnen sich durch tiefe lokale Wurzeln aus, während andere durch Migration, Ruhestand, Arbeitsplätze und schnelles Bevölkerungswachstum geprägt sind. Quelle: USA

Do you guys think the word “penitentiary” comes from the word “Pennsylvania”?
Why would I leave PA? It’s cheap, beautiful everywhere and offers both good city life and rural life. No reason to go.
North Dakota? Really??
So is this the percentage of adults living in State X who were born in State X, or the percentage of people born in State X who still live in State X?
The legend on the map implies the former to me, but the writeup seems to indicate the latter.
Spread your wings midwest.
I would what the percentage in states like NY and NJ would be if you include people whose birth state is one that borders that state. I would imagine there are plenty who have moved between the two a few times in their lives but are still no more than 50 miles from where they grew up.
Im so glad I left Indiana.
As someone who’s lived in Wisconsin and Louisiana for significant amounts of time, this checks out
Lol@ Nevada
I left Iowa at 18. Eventually said fuck it and left the US entirely.
I left my birth state after leaving the hospital post-birth. Was only born there because it had the only hospital in the region equipped to deal with a premature birth at the time. Mum and I had to be airlifted there lmao. But even then, I still left my „home state“ within a few years because my dad was PCS’d to another base in the country, where we stayed for two years before being PCS’d again. Stayed in that state for 16 years before fucking off to another, and then again, and again, and once more.
I’ve never stayed in one place for long, hoping my current one is it for the long haul though lol.
Wouldn’t be surprised if Colorado is on the low end of its range. I remember growing up seemingly half of the population of Denver moved their from Chicagoland. It was common enough we got WGN with a local broadcast boost (seemingly everyone east of the Rocky Mountains did, but in Cozad NE, it was poor quality).to get it clearly and everyone seemed a Cubs fan before the Rox started up.
The color choices are horrible. Blood red, or 3 shades of pink?
Not even lying I know about 13 people from Reno/sparks area and they all live in cali, Oregon, and washington lol so I want to believe this map
I guess what happens in Vegas doesn’t really stay there
Midwest: we stay because we want to
South: we stay because we can’t afford to get out
Minnesota checks out lol I know so many people who haven’t even left the city they grew up in. I’ve moved around the state but now I live about 20 minutes from where I grew up. I have no plans to leave Minnesota myself besides possibly in retirement.
Your home equity in those states doesn’t get you much when trying to move elsewhere…..
Its hard to leave Ohio because the cost of living and pay scale is so low here. Our home is worth triple its value most other desirable areas. I would like to move elsewhere but can’t swing it.
Can confirm that native Minnesotans never leave Minnesota
I’m one of the few non-natives in Louisiana, this doesn’t surprise me at all. In college when I told people I was from Texas, the response was always “then why did you come here???”
I’m 26 in Alabama and I live 5 minutes away from the hospital I was born in.
This makes me feel lucky to have escaped Louisiana 😅
It’s hard to leave an affordable state.
Why is this flesh colored?
Now plot all military bases for correlation. Military families move every 2-3 years. Have 5 kids and been in the service for 15 years? None of their kids reside in their birth state.
