Read this carefully: The IRS withholds county-to-county flows below its disclosure threshold, so a county missing from this table is one whose flow was too small to publish, not one nobody moved from. Every total here is a total of disclosed flows and is therefore a floor.
Methodology
Source:
U.S. Internal Revenue Service, Statistics of Income Migration Data, county-to-county inflows, 2022-23
Measure
Households, ranked highest first across every U.S. state the IRS recorded sending households to the Upstate (Anderson, Greenville, Laurens, Oconee, Pickens, Spartanburg, SC)
(30 ranked in total).
How the headline figure is computed
The largest single origin state's disclosed households (4,946) divided by all disclosed inbound households from outside this market (14,036) in the 2022-23 vintage.
Universe
Every U.S. state the IRS disclosed at least one county-to-county flow from. Flows below the IRS disclosure threshold are absent from the source file, so the shares here are computed over disclosed flows.
Every figure on this page is computed directly from the dataset named above
by ALEX Intelligence. No figure on this page was written by hand or by a
language model. The query is stated so that anyone can re-run it and obtain
the same table.
