This is fairly interesting, I especially like the stats per county. You can definitely see the white flight effect in full action with money lost to counties.

Also, it seems the counties that are generally considered less desirable (hence losing net AGI) is actually importing folks from other states. That suggests people who move tend to be on the lower end of the socio-economic spectrum.

It is interesting. I wouldn't just characterize it as white flight (or it's the final stage of it). Every remotely "industrialized" area of my state is a shade of red, and only the largest city has substantial green in the collar areas. They remain majority white, but as you mention, other poor people are moving there in place of the wealthier that left.

I don't really understand the economics of population transfers but I'm interested in learning about it.

>all those north east and california liberals contaminating the rest of the US

Yeah, it's unfortunate. However, I would think they would tend toward Sam's Club Republican since they're middle class and not the limousine liberals that end up staying behind.

It's hilarious people are moving out of the socialist states.

I don't think Ohio is as "socialist" as the other states

But the state did go for Obama both elections

Meh. People retire and move to warmer climates. It's been happening forever, and it's not a political thing. Back to /pol/ faggot.

Then stopping injecting your political biases into fabricated answers to economic questions.

So arguing against socialism is akin to political patronization?

So much for free speech?

From California?

it's just a boring state

if you look its mostly Cleavland, Columbus and Cinci losing all the money.

Funny thing is Columbus and Cinci aren't bad cities, so people probably just want to move up in the world

This looks like just a case of people moving to less densely populated/poorer states. California is like 20% of the US's economy and 10% of the population, and New York and Illinois are similarly big/important. It would take a miniscule fraction if the population leaving to cause a loss of $20bn. By contrast, Ohio is much poorer relatively, so it's outflow is much larger relatively.

I'd like to see this redone as the fraction of each state's wealth that left the state. That would be much more illuminating.

Choose one, moron.

This would matter why?

It would appear everyone is fleeing from tax heavy states... and marijuana is obviously popular.
