Within American states, the last two years have seen a dramatic shift of
relocation (both for individuals and businesses) and family income within
our country. About 70% of the moves were from urban to urban areas, and 56%
moved from suburban to suburban areas. The shift was from high-tax and
high-regulations states, to low-tax and reasonable-regulations states. Money
walks, and moves to where it is welcome. Just as important, these trends are
expected to become long-term<\/p>

U.S. cities with populations over 1million experienced an 88% decline in
their growth rates from 2010 to 2018. New York and California were hit
hardest. New York lost 1.6% of its population but almost 3% of its income,
meaning that the people who left were big taxpayers and big earners. Low
taxes, low crime rates, and the freedom to live your life without fear of
government intrusion are the main reasons for the Great Migration.<\/p>

40 Billion Vanished<\/h2>

In 2020, a total of $40 billion of income was lost by California and New
York. Most of the money went to Florida<\/a> ($24B), Texas ($12B) and Arizona
($4B). California’s big state income tax is driving people out, along with
major increases in the cost of living, a terrible legal environment of
anti-business laws, high prices, and the homeless\/drug problems in the
larger cities. It is also the most regulated state in the U.S. In recent
years, California has lost 2.6 million residents, even with big-time foreign
immigration. The California counties that have seen the largest exit of
their population are San Francisco, San Mateo, and Santa Clara. New York
also saw a huge decrease in population, with roughly 70,000 leaving in 2020
alone. An example of why: New York City’s budget expenditures are equal to
all of Florida.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
