Some interesting interactive charts and maps from December turned up today via Kottke.org [#] about patterns of regional migration in the US. Aside from the general “out of the northeast” movement, they report also characterized states as being “sticky” or “magnetic”. Washington ends up high on both of these measures, with 54.3 percent of the population born in another state and 64.3 percent of those born in the state staying around. [pewsocialtrends]
