not quite. just shy of 788,000 per the census. but i thought everyone was fleeing?
i don't sense it where i live...except for a few new shops, not much has changed here.
People are fleeing, RELATIVELY speaking. There is normal population growth and immigration increases offset by net out migration which is defined as the movement of people between states. So the overall number may be increasing but not due to people moving into the area from other places. Does that make sense?
Between July 2014 and July 2015, all but nine states added population via migration. Illinois and New York lost the most residents, while Florida and Texas recorded the largest gains.

It does but why doesn't immigrant increases count as inflow? Unless you're talking about immigrants having children.

It does count in the overall pop numbers obviously, but in order to figure out state to state movement you have to control for that to get to relative changes in migration between states.
So for example, pick any really good NJ town with good schools and relatively easy NYC commute and believe it or not the population is not increasing very much at all especially compared to (i'm just gonna pick one out of a hat) the northern Dallas suburb of Flower Mound TX.

This is not really a good comparison since most NJ towns that fit your description are mostly built out.

good link. NJans are moving to FL, NC, GA, etc but our population still grows due to immigration and people looking for a suburban lifestyle
