The what? Daily Caller? LOL

People are moving from states like NY to get warmer weather, mostly retirees. I live in a northern blue state and it's freeeeezing here right now. But I'm not moving out because it's a good state.

And then deal with the increase in taxes, increase in cost of living and stagnating wages.

That's just some of it. Other than NYC, people flee NYS due to a horrific economy. Upstate is a decades long mini Detroit.
