This is less than the number of out-of-state residents who moved to <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> in 2016 (531,996). The net gain of out-of-state residents in <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> in 2017 fell from 87,656 in 2016 to 57,173 residents in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Residents moving to <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> from outside of <span class=\"xn-location\">the United States<\/span> made up nearly half of the total inflow of residents. Among U.S. states, the highest number of new Texans relocated from <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span> (63,175), <span class=\"xn-location\">Florida<\/span> (33,740), <span class=\"xn-location\">Louisiana<\/span> (28,700), <span class=\"xn-location\">Illinois<\/span> (26,214) and <span class=\"xn-location\">New York<\/span> (20,644).<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span> ranked third in <span class=\"xn-location\">the United States<\/span> for the number of residents moving out of state (467,338) in 2017.

Three of the top 10 counties were located in the Gulf Coast.<\/p>\n<p>Bates concluded, &#8220;As more residents and businesses choose to put down roots in <span class=\"xn-location\">Texas<\/span>, we need to preserve our favorable conditions to buy, sell, rent and own real estate here.
