UHAUL ISSUES ANNUAL REPORT

More People Moving Out

Of NYS Than Moving In

Forty-one states are growing faster than New York, according to U-Haul®’s annual analysis of its customers.

Tennessee moves into first place on the new UHaul chart, edging Texas, the leading growth state in 2016-18, and Florida, the No. 1 growth state for 2019. Ohio and Arizona round out the top five states for growth.

Growth states are calculated by the net gain of one-way U-Haul trucks entering a state versus leaving that state during a calendar year. Migration trends data is compiled from more than 2 million one-way U-Haul truck-sharing transactions that occur annually.

California slides one position to 50th as the state with the steepest out-migration – or the largest net loss of U-Haul trucks crossing its border. Illinois is 49th.

Colorado, Missouri, Nevada, North Carolina and Georgia complete the top 10 growth states, amplifying a 2020 stronghold for the Southeast and Southwest regions in attracting do-it-yourself movers.

People coming to New York in one-way U-Haul trucks decreased 21 percent year-over-year, while departures dropped nearly 22 percent from 2019. Arrivals accounted for 49.9 percent of all one-way U-Haul traffic during 2020 to make it the No. 42 state for netting DIY movers, inching up one spot from its No. 43 ranking the previous year.

New York’s leading growth city is Ithaca. Other notable net-gain cities include Queensbury, Newburgh, Poughkeepsie, Schenectady, Rochester, West Seneca, Binghamton, Utica, New Rochelle, Niagara Falls and Buffalo.
