Based on data from the U.S. Census Bureau, the report shows that <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> continues to be a high-demand destination for residents moving from out of state.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-person\">Scott Kesner<\/span>, chairman of the Texas Association of Realtors, commented: &#8220;2015 has been a great year for <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span>, with healthy economic diversity driving much of our state&#8217;s population and job growth. <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> is not only a global leader in oil and gas production, but a national hub for technology, manufacturing, and several other industries. The Lone Star State continues to be a great place to live as well as start a business, and the more than half a million people who move here every year are proof of that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> followed <span class=\"xn-location\">Florida<\/span> as No. 2 in the U.S. for population gains from out-of-state residents in 2014, with 538,572 people moving to <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> from out of state. The state the most new Texans came from was <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span> (63,591), followed by <span class=\"xn-location\">Florida<\/span> (40,930), <span class=\"xn-location\">Oklahoma<\/span> (25,096), <span class=\"xn-location\">Louisiana<\/span> (23,805) and <span class=\"xn-location\">Illinois<\/span> (23,258). <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> once again ranked third in the nation for number of residents moving out of state (435,107), coming in behind <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span> (593,308) and <span class=\"xn-location\">Florida<\/span> (437,516) and topping <span class=\"xn-location\">New York<\/span> (424,074) and <span class=\"xn-location\">Illinois<\/span> (323,468). As with inbound residents, the most popular state for Texans to move to was <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span> (38,990), followed by <span class=\"xn-location\">Florida<\/span> (29,191), <span class=\"xn-location\">Oklahoma<\/span> (25,175), <span class=\"xn-location\">Colorado<\/span> (24,431), and <span class=\"xn-location\">Louisiana<\/span> (21,516).<\/p>\n<p>Overall, <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> had a net gain of out-of-state residents in 2014, with 103,465 more people moving to <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> than <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> residents moving out of state.<\/p>\n<p>The 2015 Texas Relocation Report also shows 5-year migration data (2009-2013) on a county-by-county basis for counties within the top 43 designated market areas in <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span>. The top 10 <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> counties with the highest net gains of residents from other <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> counties were spread all over the state, with three of the top 10 counties located in <span class=\"xn-location\">Central Texas<\/span> (<span class=\"xn-location\">Williamson<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Hays<\/span>, and <span class=\"xn-location\">Travis<\/span>). <span class=\"xn-location\">Denton County<\/span> led the state for a second year in a row with a net gain of 13,267 residents coming from other <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> counties.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">Harris<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Dallas<\/span> counties remain the top two most mobile counties in the Lone Star State, ranking No. 1 and No. 2 in <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span>, respectively, for both the largest inflow and the largest outflow of people. Both of these counties once again posted the highest net losses of residents moving out of county, with <span class=\"xn-location\">Dallas County<\/span> posting the highest net loss of people (27,155) followed by <span class=\"xn-location\">Harris County<\/span> (18,297). <\/p>\n<p>Kesner concluded, &#8220;<span class=\"xn-location\">Texas&#8217;s<\/span> unprecedented growth can only continue if our state has the infrastructure and high quality of life to support it. The Texas Association of Realtors encourages voters to vote for Proposition 1 on <span class=\"xn-chron\">Nov. 3<\/span> to keep <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> an affordable place to own a home by providing property tax relief and permanently banning a real estate transfer tax, and vote for Proposition 7, which will provide up to <span class=\"xn-money\">$2 billion<\/span> in much-needed transportation funding for our growing state.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For the complete list of these statistics or to view individual county data, see the full 2015 Texas Relocation Report at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.texasrealestate.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">TexasRealEstate.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p><b>About the 2015 Texas Relocation Report<br \/><\/b>The 2015 Texas Relocation Report is based on data from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.census.gov\/acs\/www\/data_documentation\/2013_release\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">2014 American Community Survey<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/flowsmapper.geo.census.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">2009-2013 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates<\/a> by the U.S. Census Bureau as well as the <a href=\"http:\/\/myuhaulstory.com\/2015\/06\/04\/u-haul-destination-no-1-movers-not-rain-flooded-houston-2014\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">U-Haul 2014 National Migration Trend Reports<\/a>.
