Water bill - with large pool - $50 USD a month - electricity (we use solar) but try $40 USD every 2 months People? Friendly The place is safe unless you like doing drugs; this is not the mainland. Easy travel? San Jose Cabo San Lucas airport is an international hub city. Direct flights to Atlanta, LA, San Jose CA, San Diego, Houston, Dallas, Nashville - the list go on.

@R. S. -- Right now we have been in Baja Sur for over 13 years full time. We are residents, not citizens. That is fine.

We left Illinois because of the corruption, high taxes,cost of living. We my wife and me have never looked back after leaving. Our taxes on our house there was 7000 dollars a year on a quarter acre. Down here in Kentucky we have 25 acres and pay 1700 dollars a year. .corruption.
How about NJ, with their 10K taxes per year for your home! I don't know how people still can live there. I moved out in 1997 and moved to Florida. I purchased a home 6 years ago and my taxes are a bit more than $800 per year as opposed to 10K for a home in NJ! CORRUPTION at It's Finest!

I live just outside of Charleston, SC and in the past 10 years we have exploded in growth and population, from people moving here from all over the country mainly cold and high tax states. Now thanks to everyone moving here (and I dont blame them exactly our economy is booming we have lots of jobs, but the state and counties are not controlling it) it has made traffic an absolute nightmare (they solve the issues with new roads, exits and round abouts and then build more homes and back to square one again) , the trees are torn down by hundreds of acres to make housing for all these people moving here and its ruining what we had. To make it all worse these people then move here and want to then turn our state into what they fled from by creating higher taxes to have what they had there and electing the same types of politicians with the same agendas the same mentality that created the mess they left. Its madness.
er, Charlotte has always been Liberal. It is a huge banking center with a young transient population. Traffic was "an absolute nightmare" years ago. You are projecting. What is ruining the state is the incessant warfare between the two political parties. The Conservatives are losing ground and have been using dirty tactics to stay in control.
Old habits die hard. People can leave problematic states but they never can leave the problems they have inside of them. People need to develope their minds and broaden them or otherwise they keep doing the same mistakes. In short people always carry problems in them no matter where they go or live.

The reason its not on the list is because it gets a lot of international people coming for the jobs, even with the large amounts of people there leaving.

Doing a little searching on the internet indicates the states with no income tax are: Alaska Florida Nevada South Dakota Texas Washington Wyoming And by 2021: Tennessee Are you a resident or is your research in error?
A quick google search shows "New Hampshire has no income tax on wages and salaries. However, there is a 5% tax on interest and dividends. The state also has no sales tax. Homeowners in New Hampshire pay the third-highest average effective property tax rate in the country." So congrats on dodging the income tax bullet only to dodge into one of the highest property taxes. So basically the state is luring people in with the no income tax bait and switch by upping the property taxes to get back lost revenue on the income tax.
@@Booboobear-eo4es Tennessee does not have state income tax. My oldest sister has lived there for over 30 years and they do not have a state income tax.
I thought California would be on this list. I keep on hearing stories of how Californians are moving to places like Texas and Arizona because of high cost of living
There is a net movement of people moving out. It's almost 200k a year. Most of the people who are moving out simply can't afford to live in California. Or at least they aren't spinning their wheels so much. Many of the people who are moving in have higher incomes. I can believe that. I live in the SF Bay Area and the middle class here is now made up mainly by the higher income level of the middle class. Surprisingly a significant percentage of people moving to California are from Texas.
A lot of californians are moving to idaho too. But cali's so damn big & the overall population is so large, that it would take at least almost 10-20 years for them to see a big population decline.

True, my uncle and his family lived in NJ. About 8 years ago they were driving down to Miami for Christmas and made a pit stop to visit me in SC on their way down. They had on winter gear and here I was still wearing a long sleeve T-shirt, lol. They asked me how much I paid in property taxes which was like 3x less than they were paying. By the time they got back to NJ, they decided to move here, sold their house and had a house built in a new subdivision at the time near me for less than $200k and bigger than they had in NJ. They were down here within the year and never looked back. Up until then, I had no family in the state. 😊
NJ is bleeding people with money but it's sanctuary status has helped keep it's population at an 'even' level cuz we have lots of poor people moving in now. I think the average person moving to NJ makes at least 50k less than the average person moving out does. This state is finished. It's about to be a welfare state.
@@dianad3080 I grew up in NJ when My parents retired around 2010, they moved down to FL. Very similar to your tale except they came down to FL to visit my mom's brother. When they got back home, within 3 - 6 months my dad retired, they sold the house packed up and moved without hesitation!
People say the taxes are high in NJ and they are, they just raised the tolls on all the toll roads again and they raised the tax on tobacco again, cigarettes are at about 10 bucks a pack now, two things I'm affected by, because I use tobacco and I drive a descent amount, however in comparison to places like New York and Philadelphia, the tax rate is way down and the one thing people forget are that incomes in this state are a lot higher than many other states, New Jersey has always been known as the powerhouse of the US economy, Bush 1 said it when he visited, its true, whatever happens in NJ will usually be the trend for the rest of the country. Not sure how cheap gas is at the moment with covid 19 going on in other states, but at the moment I'm paying $1.51 a gallon, about $20 bucks to fill my tank and my job isn't effected by covid 19. Like he said, a lot of people are escaping nearby states for NJ. Many live in NJ and commute to work in NY or PA and keep a much larger piece of their paycheck. For those reasons, New Jersey did not make the list and even though it didn't, its a known fact, lots of people are leaving this state fast, just not at the pace large enough to make that list. New Jersey is also the only state thst still has 100% full service gas stations. That provides a descent part time job while in school and on the Turnpike, its providing people with little education a descent paying job with benefits, just to pump gas, something people do themselves in almost every other state.

@Debra Meyers In the early 1970's there was a nostalgia craze for the 1950's. American Graffiti was an example of that. So was Happy Days. The feeling was that music had got too complicated and dark. People wanted a return to simpler and happier music. People wanted a return to more innocent times. The Watergate Crisis and the fall of Vietnam to communism meant that many Americans felt disillusioned. Jimmy Carter was a failed President. It was not until Ronald Reagan became President that Americans started to feel good about themselves. I will take Doo-Wap over disco any day.

Here’s a wild thought, maybe if we actually got something for our taxes like healthcare, functioning infrastructure, education, etc it wouldn’t be an issue. But when you’re paying ridiculous taxes ON TOP of insanely high student loan payments and appalling healthcare costs, with low wages, it makes it unlivable. Taxes are supposed to go into public goods that should improve life and actually save you money overall. When you have corrupt pieces of shit (don’t get it twisted, both sides are), you get decreased quality of life. Hence why the entire US is just another crumbling empire, because politicians on BOTH sides have run the place into the ground.

There's a net increase of people again for this year. It was a small growth but nothing surprising here. California has suffered more people migrating a few times in the past. Most recently during the Great Recession. It happens with every economic downturn. But the net result has always been a increase over the years. People are expecting to see drops like Alaska. It's not. Even for SF it is less than 1%. Most of the people moving aren't moving far. Often times it is just into the Central Valley. Not as desirable a place to be during summer.
Strict gun laws are just the tip of the iceberg. Wherever a state disrespects your right to bear arms, you can bet they're also infringing on a thousand other little things as well. They're genuinely the type of people to tell you you can't cut down that tree in your front yard because the homeless depend on it for shade.
I really don’t think a family would leave their job(s), friends etc for less stricter gun laws. It may be a plus when they move but not an actual reason to move.

You are sorely needed in West Virginia, and yes you will have more work than you bargained for with the rate of drug addictions being extremely exponential.
I had three friends from West Virginia. I met them in North Carolina. They had already had lived in Ohio and Florida. A few years after I met them they moved back to West Virginia. So yes you can always go back home. Just Saying.

@@htx713cc8 It's almost impressive that in today's day and age someone could still be naive enough to think corruption is partisan.

We're almost always # 48 on best run states lists, right behind CA at 49. There is however one thing partisan that remains pretty consistent. Democratic states do a better job of both policing and preventing public corruption. We're talking degrees here though not good and bad. On top of that it's been republican aligned groups taking cases to court to weaken the countries public corruption laws. Again though it's not like Democrats put up much of a fight to stop it or more likely, agreed not to fight the efforts in private.

Now thanks to everyone moving here (and I dont blame them exactly our economy is booming we have lots of jobs, but the state and counties are not controlling it) it has made traffic an absolute nightmare (they solve the issues with new roads, exits and round abouts and then build more homes and back to square one again) , the trees are torn down by hundreds of acres to make housing for all these people moving here and its ruining what we had. To make it all worse these people then move here and want to then turn our state into what they fled from by creating higher taxes to have what they had there and electing the same types of politicians with the same agendas the same mentality that created the mess they left. Its madness.
Communists?
er, Charlotte has always been Liberal. It is a huge banking center with a young transient population. Traffic was "an absolute nightmare" years ago.
You are projecting. What is ruining the state is the incessant warfare between the two political parties. The Conservatives are losing ground and have been using dirty tactics to stay in control.

Old habits die hard. People can leave problematic states but they never can leave the problems they have inside of them. People need to develope their minds and broaden them or otherwise they keep doing the same mistakes.
In short people always carry problems in them no matter where they go or live.

I mean I don't agree with everything republicans are about but I sure as hell don't agree with a lot more that the democrats are about now! this isn't the same party that elected Bill Clinton the people that are in there now are nuts
Yet you forget Alaska, Kansas, and Louisiana are on this list all republican controlled especially the first two
Because of how much migration is coming from other countries.
here in Oregon too unfortunately
I'm amazed New Jersey wasn't on the list. Seems like a state people would want to leave.
Yes! I was raised her and l hate it! High taxes, corrupt politicians, poor schools, gang violence. I’m headed to South Carolina in 6 months!
A lot of people leave, but a lot of New Yorkers move there and balance it out
should be # 1....jersey sux big time can't wait to leave
Cuz jersey lit it's not but it is but the rule of Jersey is ONCE U LEAVE U DONT GO BACK
Yes, I married someone from NJ and we’re moving out soon. If you’re paying 10K in taxes to live on a small plot of land, you have to re-examine your priorities.
Living in Cali made me a conservative. That's literally the only good thing about it.
Where did you go ?
Nothing conservative about a Republican, and we thank you here in California for leaving...
Don’t leave till u vote for Republican, Trump to save US & CA
@freEvo8 Yes, Republicans are so conservative they elected a reality star pu$$! grabbing adulterer like Trump, they are so conservative our deficit has shot up and debt piled up, even before the pandemic, they are so conservative they condone and support separating families at the border... nothing conservative about that bud. You are just a Trumpservative who would love to live under Christian Sharia.
Rafa Rodriguez separating law breaking illegal aliens.... no problem with that. Come legally or stay home. Your problem with that?
Yes we do have to pay income tax here in Florida. Everyone in the USA does. What we don't have is an additional STATE income tax!
NH has no income tax and no sales tax.
Doing a little searching on the internet indicates the states with no income tax are:
Alaska
Florida
Nevada
South Dakota
Texas
Washington
Wyoming
And by 2021: Tennessee
Are you a resident or is your research in error?
Booboobear2388 - life time residence, and no income tax however if you are an LLC or Corp there is business profits tax, but not high.
A quick google search shows "New Hampshire has no income tax on wages and salaries. However, there is a 5% tax on interest and dividends. The state also has no sales tax. Homeowners in New Hampshire pay the third-highest average effective property tax rate in the country." So congrats on dodging the income tax bullet only to dodge into one of the highest property taxes. So basically the state is luring people in with the no income tax bait and switch by upping the property taxes to get back lost revenue on the income tax.
@@Booboobear-eo4es Tennessee does not have state income tax. My oldest sister has lived there for over 30 years and they do not have a state income tax.
I thought California would be on this list. I keep on hearing stories of how Californians are moving to places like Texas and Arizona because of high cost of living
Isa Alatovic The birth rate and people moving from abroad is keeping the total population from declining.
There is a net movement of people moving out. It's almost 200k a year. Most of the people who are moving out simply can't afford to live in California. Or at least they aren't spinning their wheels so much. Many of the people who are moving in have higher incomes. I can believe that. I live in the SF Bay Area and the middle class here is now made up mainly by the higher income level of the middle class. Surprisingly a significant percentage of people moving to California are from Texas.
A lot of californians are moving to idaho too. But cali's so damn big & the overall population is so large, that it would take at least almost 10-20 years for them to see a big population decline.
Lots coming in lots leaving too
@ I can only imagine the effects with another 20 million. People are complaining about traffic and housing prices already. Are we going to end up with an underclass of people like something out of Blade Runner.
It made my heart grow when you said bye Illinois.
I’m getting tf out of Illinois once I’m done with high school
I left in 80
Il. Sucks
FelipeTheFirst Ikr there’s nothing to do here and the landscaping is kinda boring and taxes. Taxes are the main problem for me. The only good thing is the lack of natural disasters at least the part where I live.
After highschool I'm fleeing Connecticut because their is nothing to do except get robbed and gangs doing wheelies on dirt bikes plus my apartment even though we keep it clean still has roaches
The cost of living here in Washington are going up a lot. Property taxes and minimum wages increases are so high. Small businesses are getting pushed out.
I grew up in New Jersey. I'm surprised NJ wasn't on this list. Taxes are so high, some people can't even afford to move out.
True, my uncle and his family lived in NJ. About 8 years ago they were driving down to Miami for Christmas and made a pit stop to visit me in SC on their way down. They had on winter gear and here I was still wearing a long sleeve T-shirt, lol. They asked me how much I paid in property taxes which was like 3x less than they were paying. By the time they got back to NJ, they decided to move here, sold their house and had a house built in a new subdivision at the time near me for less than $200k and bigger than they had in NJ. They were down here within the year and never looked back. Up until then, I had no family in the state. 😊
NJ is bleeding people with money but it's sanctuary status has helped keep it's population at an 'even' level cuz we have lots of poor people moving in now. I think the average person moving to NJ makes at least 50k less than the average person moving out does. This state is finished. It's about to be a welfare state.
@@dianad3080 I grew up in NJ when My parents retired around 2010, they moved down to FL. Very similar to your tale except they came down to FL to visit my mom's brother. When they got back home, within 3 - 6 months my dad retired, they sold the house packed up and moved without hesitation!
@@mstyles2667 About to be? HAHA, it was worse than that 10-15 years ago! I left there and never looked back!
People say the taxes are high in NJ and they are, they just raised the tolls on all the toll roads again and they raised the tax on tobacco again, cigarettes are at about 10 bucks a pack now, two things I'm affected by, because I use tobacco and I drive a descent amount, however in comparison to places like New York and Philadelphia, the tax rate is way down and the one thing people forget are that incomes in this state are a lot higher than many other states, New Jersey has always been known as the powerhouse of the US economy, Bush 1 said it when he visited, its true, whatever happens in NJ will usually be the trend for the rest of the country. Not sure how cheap gas is at the moment with covid 19 going on in other states, but at the moment I'm paying $1.51 a gallon, about $20 bucks to fill my tank and my job isn't effected by covid 19. Like he said, a lot of people are escaping nearby states for NJ. Many live in NJ and commute to work in NY or PA and keep a much larger piece of their paycheck. For those reasons, New Jersey did not make the list and even though it didn't, its a known fact, lots of people are leaving this state fast, just not at the pace large enough to make that list.
New Jersey is also the only state thst still has 100% full service gas stations. That provides a descent part time job while in school and on the Turnpike, its providing people with little education a descent paying job with benefits, just to pump gas, something people do themselves in almost every other state.
Left Illinois in 2001,ne er looked back, no jobs and no money. Greedy politicians...

I enjoyed Tuscon Arizona as there's a lot of activities and the cost of living isn't outrageous, they do vehicular inspections though.
Try the DMV area, lots of free events and great culture here
Colorado and Arizona are both great but don’t move to Phoenix. Go somewhere like Tucson or in the mountains like Sedona or Payson. In Colorado, Colorado Springs is like a nice season, smaller Denver
Surprise, Arizona and Seattle, Washington are both great places so is Florida and Texas but I’m also in the military 😂 Utah isn’t too bad besides the 8 months of winter
I moved from Alabama to Arizona and absolutely loved it! The different scenery was a breath of fresh air. I'm back in AL for now, but I plan to relocate back to either AZ or Utah. Best of luck with your decision! 🖤

@Debra Meyers except good music.
@Debra Meyers In the early 1970's there was a nostalgia craze for the 1950's. American Graffiti was an example of that. So was Happy Days. The feeling was that music had got too complicated and dark. People wanted a return to simpler and happier music. People wanted a return to more innocent times. The Watergate Crisis and the fall of Vietnam to communism meant that many Americans felt disillusioned. Jimmy Carter was a failed President. It was not until Ronald Reagan became President that Americans started to feel good about themselves. I will take Doo-Wap over disco any day.

Here’s a wild thought, maybe if we actually got something for our taxes like healthcare, functioning infrastructure, education, etc it wouldn’t be an issue. But when you’re paying ridiculous taxes ON TOP of insanely high student loan payments and appalling healthcare costs, with low wages, it makes it unlivable. Taxes are supposed to go into public goods that should improve life and actually save you money overall. When you have corrupt pieces of shit (don’t get it twisted, both sides are), you get decreased quality of life. Hence why the entire US is just another crumbling empire, because politicians on BOTH sides have run the place into the ground.

California’s population is still increasing
Somehow people are still moving there, so there is no net loss.
There's a net increase of people again for this year. It was a small growth but nothing surprising here. California has suffered more people migrating a few times in the past. Most recently during the Great Recession. It happens with every economic downturn. But the net result has always been a increase over the years. People are expecting to see drops like Alaska. It's not. Even for SF it is less than 1%. Most of the people moving aren't moving far. Often times it is just into the Central Valley. Not as desirable a place to be during summer.

Strict gun laws are just the tip of the iceberg. Wherever a state disrespects your right to bear arms, you can bet they're also infringing on a thousand other little things as well. They're genuinely the type of people to tell you you can't cut down that tree in your front yard because the homeless depend on it for shade.
