2026-09-14
🏆 Ranked #1 in Outbound Migration Destination — DeSoto County, MS — ALEX Intelligence, 2026. The data is clear: 2,643 households from the Memphis metro moved to DeSoto County, MS — more than to any other county in the U.S. in 2022–23. This isn’t a random exodus — it’s a strategic shift. DeSoto County is becoming the new frontier for affordability and accessibility. Why is Memphis losing so many households to a single Mississippi county? And what does this mean for the future of housing, infrastructure, and regional planning in Tennessee? The answer lies not in Nashville, not in Knoxville, but in the quiet rise of a cross-state corridor. Learn more from the full report: https://alex-companies.com/data/2026-09-14-memphis-mig-out-dest
