As Americans move around, there are 3 major patterns of migration: from Snowbelt to Sunbelt states, from the coasts to inland, and from big cities to the suburbs. On top of those 3 patterns, there is a demographic impact of the Baby Boomers.

Migration from Snowbelt to Sunbelt States

Snowbelt states, e.g. Michigan, Ohio, and Philadelphia tend to have high concentration of heavy industry: steel, auto, etc. These states have lost jobs due to foreign competition from Asia where the labor costs are much lower. As a result, the population in many Sunbelt states has continued to decline.

Migration from the Coasts to Inland

About 153 million Americans are living within 50 miles from the coastline. They are moving from big cities along the coasts, e.g. San Francisco, San Jose, and Los Angeles. Inland areas in Sacramento, Riverside/San Bernardino counties, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Dallas, Houston, and Charlotte experience very rapid growth. There are 3 main reasons for the migration:

• Many companies and people are moving into these inland cities to take advantage of the lower housing costs and higher quality of living. A software engineer working in the suburb of Dallas will get paid a little bit less compared to working in Silicon Valley. However, his home in Coppell, TX is about 60% less expensive and 2 times the size.

  Stand Out At Work
  Career development is not always about moving up in the organization. It’s more about constantly improving yourself and getting the most out of your job and work life.

    Debt Consolidation Options: What Form is Right for You?
    When you decide to consolidate your debt, the obvious first question is “how?” – and that’s a question that isn’t easy to answer right off the bat.Sure, you can go to your bank and ask them to consolidate all of your debts. You could get a new credit card with a 0% interest rate on debt transfers. You could call a credit counseling bureau, many of which were recently taken off ‘tax exempt’ status by the IRS, because rather than working to help you, they work to earn a huge profit off you…Every option has a downside, and there are more opt
