Aside from Texas, hardly anybody wants to move to a bright Red State. For starters, who wants to move to North or South Dakota? The cost of living will always remain low in those states from lack of people moving in to jack up the prices, due to the law of supply and demand.
Actually a lot of people do want to move to South Dakota... and it isn't fair to go with policy as the reasons... South Dakota has terrible winter weather and twisters so to have anyone move there says a lot.
But the states with the largest number of people head their way are all red.
- Idaho
- Nevada
- Arizona
- Florida
- Wyoming
- North and South Carolina
- Georgia
- Tennessee.
Two thirds of the nation's economic activity takes place in blue areas. Or at least that was the case in 2016.
Two thirds.
Naturally, areas with the most economic activity tend to attract people looking for decent jobs. This tends to increase traffic and drive up the price of housing.
These areas also tend to have soup kitchens, homeless shelters, mental health services, minimum wage jobs, ... Hence the attraction for the less fortunate.

But now we see the truth... it took place because the blue states managed to get corporations there via bribes and people put up with the blue states because they had to -- to be employed.
Now that they can work from home, there is a mass exodus... to where? Red states.
This is how it worked.. blue states taxed heavy and gave the money to corporations to come there...
Corporations came there.
Employees came there...
Blue states got some more tax revenues...
people were trapped in blue states..
Blue states stopped doing anything for corporations and the middle class
Blue states used that money to let in the dregs of society at discounts...
Blue states used tax dollars to the dregs of society so they would vote for them...
I want to live in The United States of America. The country we had before MAGA took over. The nation that did not have leadership whose sole purpose is to divide us into Red & Blue on every topic, issue or problem that we the people face.

Red states have been attracting corporations with tax breaks, attractive financial packages, and gutted labor protection for decades. Where have you been? How do you think all those auto plants ended up in the south?

The country really began to get divided when you had a candidate refuse to accept defeat 4 years ago.
Economist Stephen Moore makes some interesting observations. The proof is in the pudding... or rather the facts. Red states are flourishing, Blue states are falling into despair. California's homeless population gets worse year by year.
Red-
We can hike on the weekends, enjoy low crime, have a great house, and have farms.
When we want to watch broadway plays, baseball, or go to museums, they are only 90 minutes away.
As to the mass exodus of remote workers heading to red states, we'll see about that.
There are several in our circle of family of friends who can and do work remotely. Not a one has expressed any interest in moving the North Dakota, Oklahoma, or Alabama. They don't care how cheap the homes are selling for, they like good schools, decent restaurants, top notch health care, ...
There is also the issue of internet access.
One couple recently looked at a quaint community about 30 miles from where they live. No Google fiber nixed that.

Oh, BS.
The country has been divided since 1865, ever since the Confederate traitors refused to accept defeat.
