This is less than the number of out-of-state residents who moved to <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> in 2015 (553,032), but the net gain of out-of-state residents in <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> in 2016 was still positive at 87,656 residents.<\/p>\n<p>Nearly half of the gross inflow of residents to <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> originated from outside of the U.S. Among U.S. states, the highest number of new Texans relocated from <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span> (69,945), <span class=\"xn-location\">Florida<\/span> (31,145), <span class=\"xn-location\">Oklahoma<\/span> (30,532), <span class=\"xn-location\">Louisiana<\/span> (27,998) and <span class=\"xn-location\">Illinois<\/span> (21,848).<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> ranked third in the nation for number of residents moving out of state (444,340) in 2016, but fewer people moved from <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> to other states compared to the previous report. The most popular out-of-state relocation destinations for Texans were <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span> (39,109), <span class=\"xn-location\">Florida<\/span> (31,153), <span class=\"xn-location\">Oklahoma<\/span> (28,060), <span class=\"xn-location\">Louisiana<\/span> (21,925), and <span class=\"xn-location\">Colorado<\/span> (20,725).<\/p>\n<p>At the Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) level, <span class=\"xn-location\">Los Angeles-Long Beach<\/span>&#8211;<span class=\"xn-location\">Anaheim<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">New York<\/span>&#8211;<span class=\"xn-location\">Newark<\/span>&#8211;<span class=\"xn-location\">Jersey City<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Chicago<\/span>&#8211;<span class=\"xn-location\">Naperville<\/span>&#8211;<span class=\"xn-location\">Elgin<\/span> produced the highest volume of residents relocating to <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span>. <span class=\"xn-location\">Dallas-Fort Worth<\/span>&#8211;<span class=\"xn-location\">Arlington<\/span> recorded the highest number of incoming residents from out-of-state (123,661) followed by <span class=\"xn-location\">Houston<\/span>-The Woodlands-Sugar Land MSA (104,811).<\/p>\n<p>At the county level, <span class=\"xn-location\">Harris County<\/span> led the state with a net gain of 20,942 residents relocating from out of state, but four of the top 10 counties with the highest net gain of out-of-state residents were in <span class=\"xn-location\">North Texas<\/span> (<span class=\"xn-location\">Dallas<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Tarrant<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Collin<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Denton<\/span> counties). Three of the top 10 counties were located in <span class=\"xn-location\">Central Texas<\/span> (<span class=\"xn-location\">Travis<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Williamson<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Bell<\/span>).<\/p>\n<p>Lybbert concluded, &#8220;The Texas Triangle is a magnet for relocation activity and real estate development across the state. As these large MSAs like <span class=\"xn-location\">Austin<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">San Antonio<\/span> continue to fuse together, it&#8217;s becoming increasingly important for our local and state leaders to think about housing development and affordability from a regional perspective.
