Where did your neighbors come from?


American Migration [Interactive Map]

Forbes
Close to 40 million Americans move from one home to another every year. Click here for  the map: blue counties send more migrants to the selected county than they take; red counties take more than they send. Updated on February 24, 2012 | By Jon Bruner | More about the map >

This map visualizes migration data that the IRS has collected. In order to preserve privacy, the IRS only includes moves that more than 10 tax filers have made.

Just for fun.  See where your neighbors are from and where their going to.

  1. Boy, am I inept with technology...I tried to maneuver the map, noted Clackamas was outlined in red, however, otherwise failed in my quest.
    What may I ask did you find as to where our Lake Oswego neighbors are from and where they are going?
