About 8.2 Million People Moved Between States in 2022

The number of people who moved between states rose from nearly 7.9 million people in 2021 to approximately 8.2 million people in 2022, according to newly released U.S. Census Bureau estimates.

The American Community Survey (ACS) shows state-to-state movers also made up a larger share of all movers between 2021 and 2022, increasing from 18.8% to 19.9%.

This increase in the number and share of state-to-state movers continued a decade-long trend of rising state-to-state migration even as overall migration has declined. Between 2021 and 2022, the overall national migration rate ? the number of movers in the United States relative to the population age 1 year and over ? dropped from 12.8% to 12.6%.

The Census Bureau regularly publishes estimates of state-to-state migration flows. Estimates are based on 1-year data from the 2022 ACS. The ACS asks respondents who moved in the past year to report their previous place of residence, allowing us to assess migration between origin and destination geographies.
