The most transient state in your opinion is... a plce where people are always coming and going, no sense of a real community feel to it, etc.

Which state do you think is the most transient?

Florida. And it has been transient for decades, it's not a recent thing.

No way NY! It wouldn't even be in the top 20 most transient states.

If you would've included NV, I would've checked it.

From your list, in order I'd say:
FL
TX
AZ
NC
CA

Yes, I'm aware its nothing new. I was born in FL. Just wanted to see if it were a clear winner as I thought.

You have too many natives living in the state of Texas for it to even be placed in the same sentence as transient state.

You're right - I should have added NV, and NM for that matter. The reason I added NY was so many move to FL and NC, and I know a lot of people from other countries first flee to NY, and then many also seem to once again, flee for FL.

Absolutely not. Texas is in the top 10 as far as transient states.

In Arizona, people don't dust, instead they move.
