Winners and Losers in Interstate Migration
The taxpayer friends at the Tax Foundation posted a most interesting map of the United States on Monday to their Tax Policy Blog that shows the "annual income lost/gained due to interstate migration.” In posting the below map, Nick Kasprak says it is:
“. . . a map of interstate movement of income over the past decade. Florida is the big winner - migrants bought a net $70 billion dollars in annual income into the state between 1999 and 2009. New York, on the other hand, lost the most income: $45 billion.”

By the way, the states gaining the most annual income are Florida (#1), Arizona (#2), and Texas (#3) while the states losing the most annual income are Illinois (#48), California (#49), and New York (#50).
