Report: More people moving out of Wisconsin
Move residents leaving than arriving during recent years

MADISON, Wis. -
A study of migration patterns shows that more people are moving out of Wisconsin than moving to Wisconsin.

According to the report from moving company Atlas Van Lines, Wisconsin was ranked seventh among states seeing the most people leaving:

Hawaii (62 percent)
New York (61.8 percent)
Illinois (61.7 percent)
South Dakota (60 percent)
Wyoming (59.5 percent)
Indiana (59.3 percent)
Wisconsin (58.6 percent)

Wisconsin has seen more people leaving than coming for many years, but the difference has grown over the last two years.

1. I know it was because of Walker and his

extreme RW polies that a family friend left (family of four)--found a good job in Minnesota last summer. Just fed up--he and his wife were active Democrats--canvassed, etc. but just got fed up and realized it was not going to change anytime soon. Also a teacher friend of mine left --after Walker dissolved the teachers unions. Another is leaving as soon as she finds a job for teaching next fall. She is interviewing in Minn right now.

4. Austerity leads to no fun, no fun isn't worth hanging around for...

Unfortunately, it's not just boomers looking for moves to retirements of their dreams...it's also corporations. Loss of long time corporations is contributing.
