The States Americans Are Fleeing (and Where They're Going)

Last summer our neighbors here in in Cambridge moved to Portland ME for the summer, then sold their house and decided to make it permanent. But it took them literally a day to sell. The universities and the biotech labs aren't going anywhere.

But the trend of having an ever-increasing percentage of the population living in increasingly crowded coastal cities was unsustainable; some redistribution is good. It means exporting our gentrification issues to other places, and it's funny that the pandemic exodus has benefited states with the highest covid infection rates, but I guess nothing comes for free, right?
