Very nice stats from an analysis of the latest census results.

Any idea on how much of this is retirement related? While attracting the retirement crowd is good (if that is the case), the state also needs to be working to attract the younger generation. I suspect (could be wrong) that states like NC, GA, VA and others are much better at attracting the young educated workforce due to better job opportunities.

Not sure yet. But I think it's both, especially considering the number of companies adding thousands of jobs a shot.

The internet has changed things to. You can see just where to stay, how much it costs. The idea of moving to another state is cakewalk now. Make it easy and people will move where they see fit.

I'm surprised we're that high. At that rate we will cross 5 million residents very soon.
