Ranking America's States: Where People Are Moving—And Why They’re Leaving

14. Oregon

Oregon is a nature lover’s paradise with its lush forests, stunning coastline, and laid-back lifestyle. Yet, more people are leaving than moving in.

Business Insider reports that 58% of moves in the state are outbound, primarily due to the rising cost of living. Portland, in particular, has been hit with concerns about affordability and crime, pushing some longtime residents to seek a fresh start elsewhere.
