Frequently asked questions

Where are people moving to Florida from?
In 2022-2023, the most people moving to Florida came from New York (71,476), Georgia (40,689), Texas (35,016).
Where are people from Florida moving?
The most people leaving Florida moved to Georgia (50,483), Texas (41,655), North Carolina (34,859).
Where does this migration data come from?
The IRS compares the address on each person's tax return with the address on their return a year earlier. A move is counted when the county or state changed. The data counts tax returns (roughly households) and the people listed on them, so people who do not file a return are not included.
Why are small flows missing?
The IRS only lists a county-to-county flow when it has at least 20 returns. Smaller flows are grouped together and are counted only in the totals.
