Texas lured the most people away from California — and these other states
Read Original Source
Arielle Francois never planned on moving to Texas. In 2022, the 20-something content creator relocated from Miami to Dallas for a program at PMG, the media company, where she now works as a digital marketer. Earlier this year, she told Business Insider's Madison Hoff that living in Dallas gave her more visibility as a creator, which has resulted in "more opportunities" for her there compared to South Florida.
AI Summary
Main Idea: Texas continued to attract far more people than it lost, with California and Florida sending the most new residents, while many movers said lower costs and jobs were key reasons.
Key Points:
- Nearly 612,000 people moved to Texas from 2022 to 2023, making it one of the biggest migration gains in the country.
- California sent the most people to Texas, followed by Florida, Oklahoma, and New York.
- Many newcomers said Texas offers lower rent, no state income tax, more jobs, and a more affordable lifestyle.
- Some people also left Texas because of high home prices, property taxes, extreme heat, and political concerns.
Impact on the People
Negative Impact
Faster growth in Texas can push up home prices, rents, traffic, and property taxes, making life harder for some workers and families.

New residents can bring jobs, customers, and business growth to Texas towns and small businesses.
