National Migration Trends: The Big Picture
Since 1993, the Migration Pattern Study has taken place to measure Atlas customers’ interstate, interprovince, and international moves. The objective is to determine where people moved to and from. Evaluating migration trends can be valuable for families or businesses planning a move, as well as moving companies.
Why Are People Moving?
Interstate and international moves are a frequent occurrence. Driven by factors such as a lower cost of living, job opportunities, location, and a desire for a change of scenery can all be examples of why people move.
Work Opportunities
Job opportunities can justify the effort it takes to move interstate or international. Whether motivated by a job description that excites you, or a paycheck that leads to a better life, work opportunities can be worth chasing. Some companies may even offer a budget to offset moving costs. Packing a home can turn into a temporary full-time job. If your new employer provides moving assistance, you may be able to hire full-service movers to pack and move your belongings. This can be yet another reason to say yes to that new opportunity.
Closer to Friends and Family
Time with our friends and family is invaluable. In pursuit of more quality time with the ones you love, you may be driven to relocate closer to friends and family. While a big life change, with proper planning and the right help you can move and get settled faster, returning to normalcy. In addition, you may have more support setting in with your friends and family nearby.
Affordability
The cost of living commonly drives individuals and families to commit to a move. Moving for affordability can transform life as you know it, creating a better day-to-day life and future for your family.
