I found an interesting map showing the migration to and from Wake CountY (and any other county in the u.s.)

Interesting...inbound migration rose and fell while outbound migration stayed fairly consistent.

And I beat her by more than that

But the link that the OP posted is up to date. While the old Map was just a snapshot of 2008, the new one allows you to select multiple years from 2005 to the present.

This is such a cool map. North Carolina will likely become the 8th most populous state by 2015. It's trailing Georgia only by about 100,000 residents as of now.

It's funny to compare Wake to L.A. County which is all red (people leaving) except for a beeline coming from Greater NYC.

Interestingly, Durham County had become a majority outbound county in 2010. Mecklenburg also flipped from being an inbound county to an outbound county in 2010. Wake, while the inbound migration slowed, remains a strong inbound county. But, even these changes in domestic migration patterns won't significantly slow down population growth because much of the previous years' growth was young people who will have families of their own.
