No surprise but not really thrilled folks are moving to Texas,Tennessee or Florida. All 3 are red states that want to stay that way so unless people leave their horrific ideas they voted into office in those blue states NOTHING will change even if they move away from there. We are considering all 3 of the top states with Tn being at the top of the list.

Interesting, but I would guess not all people are moving there because they are fleeing blue states and their policies. People have other reasons to move to a given area other than local politics and policies. I would guess a lot of these people are moving to blue cities within these states as well.

They are not fleeing because of the politics of blue states. They are fleeing because of the results of the politics of those blue states.

See the difference?

It's more affordable in those states. Otherwise, I'd be living in a blue state myself. You better believe I'm not here because of the politics, lol.

Considering Xo Brandon's complete lack of credibility, he could probably sway more parents into vaccinating their kids if he told them not to vaccinate them.

The politics of your state is the reason it's affordable! C'mon man!

Blue states are full of burdensome regulations and burdensome taxes. That's why they're more expensive!

How about they are fleeing because these states have lower real estate prices, and maybe their job moved down there. Prove that these are the results of red state/ blue state policies.

In my red state, we are being flooded with refugees from blue states. They can't get out of the blue states fast enough.

I don't blame them one bit, but I hope the ones coming are smart enough to not vote in politicians who will implement the same failed policies that made them flee their former state.

We need to mandate party passes.
Only reds can leave. Blues can stay and live with THEIR mess.
Blue quarantine.

No, not necessarily. Red states have lower population densities as a whole. Many of them also had historically low demand to move to these areas, especially from white collar professionals. Now if you want to say that attracting these new businesses and industries to this area is maybe off of a more favorable tax position, then that could very well be the case. There are many red states that are suffering economically and are losing population(ie. WV), why haven't their policies translated to more economic success?
