Came across this interactive map published by Forbes, which lets you see what the net population migration numbers were for 2008. The numbers are based on IRS data (as noted on the bottom of the map).
Not surprisingly, primarily outgoing rather than incoming for Long Island... But I still love it here :-)
Few more years and hello PA
Developers killed this place i could have told you this you didin"t need to
go to this site to find this out.
What do you think is happening in PA? People flocking to it and some are buying new homes built by developers. Yes, it's more affordable than LI, but as the population grows, the same problems will inevitably surface.
Suffolk population has increased by about 11% over the period 2005-2010;
Nassau's population has increased by about 6% over the same period.
On a year-by-year basis, both counties have larger outflow than inflow, though since 2009, the in/out has balanced quite a bit, and there is a trend towards preferential inflow - both for Nassau & Suffolk.
A possible explanation for the overall increase (despite net outflow migration over 5 years) is high enough reproductive rates to balance the net ouflow.
As for migration between Nassau <-> Suffolk, net traffic of 3000+ people from Nassau to Suffolk (richer ones coming to Suffolk, poorer ones going to Nassau).

When was the last time you looked at a map?
Located in the northeastern US, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is the 2nd largest of the three Middle Atlantic states and ranks 33rd in size among the 50 states. The total area of Pennsylvania is 45,308 sq mi (117,348 sq km), of which land occupies 44,888 sq mi (116,260 sq km) and inland water 420 sq mi (1,088 sq km). The state extends 307 mi (494 km) E-W and 169 mi (272 km) N-S. Pennsylvania is rectangular in shape, except for an irregular side on the E and a break in the even boundary in the NW where the line extends N-E for about 50 mi (80 km) along the shore of Lake Erie.
Located in the northeastern US, New York State is the largest of the three Middle Atlantic states and ranks 30th in size among the 50 states. The total area of New York is 49,108 sq mi (127,190 sq km), of which land takes up 47,377 sq mi (122,707 sq km) and the remaining 1,731 sq mi (4,483 sq km) consist of inland water. New York's width is about 320 mi (515 km) E-W, not including Long Island, which extends an additional 118 mi (190 km) SW-NE; the state's maximum N-S extension is about 310 mi (499 km). New York State is shaped roughly like a right triangle: the line from the extreme NE to the extreme SW forms the hypotenuse, with New York City as the right angle.

Ditto with NC, my beloved home state which is being absolutely "invaded" by expatriate New Yorkers who will in a very short time have brought with them all the problems they think they are leaving behind (congestion, traffic, high taxes, rude and stuck up people, etc).
