A <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/redfin.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Redfin.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> user counts as a migrant if they viewed at least 20 for-sale homes in an origin-destination pair in the relevant month. Please see the end of this report for more on methodology.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Migration from one part of the country to another ticked up in 2025 as mortgage rates eased and more homes came on the market. While home sales were still slow, more buyers and renters were able to relocate. Remote work also remains more common than it was before the pandemic, allowing more Americans to relocate for affordability or lifestyle reasons without changing jobs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPeople are moving to Tennessee in droves\u2013especially Nashville and its surrounding areas,\u201d said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/real-estate-agents\/aaron-glicken\">Aaron Glicken<\/a>, a Redfin Premier agent in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/13415\/TN\/Nashville?utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=ppc&amp;utm_term=kwd-340516833332&amp;utm_content=749992076834&amp;utm_campaign=1040404&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjw37nNBhDkARIsAEBGI8PpE4HyeGXXoBOBk2z4wpxfesw4s4u-DcdBsm9SKJEkrS6DFFhlJWcaAlAPEALw_wcB\">Nashville, TN<\/a>. \u201cCompared to the West Coast, where many of them are moving from, we have relatively low housing costs and lower taxes. A lot of the people moving here work remotely, while others take local tech, healthcare or music jobs. In one exclusive high-end neighborhood, more than half of the homeowners are from California. I had one listing where three neighboring homes were all bought by people moving in from California within the last 18 months.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Glicken said that while most people relocating to the Nashville area come from California, there are also people moving in from Chicago, New York and Texas. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2021, mortgage rates were hovering just under 3% for most of the year and pandemic-fueled remote work was common, driving many people to relocate. While it\u2019s somewhat counterintuitive that a higher share of house hunters are relocating to a different metro now than back then\u201318.8% compared with 15.9%\u2013Redfin economists say it\u2019s largely due to the large size of the metros in this analysis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We use Combined Statistical Areas (CSAs), which are typically made up of several Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs). The San Jose-San Francisco CSA, for example, is made up of many surrounding MSAs, including Napa Valley, Santa Cruz and several other places. A remote worker who moved from the city of San Francisco to Napa Valley in 2021 wouldn\u2019t have been considered a \u201crelocator\u201d because those two places are part of the same CSA. That type of move, from cities to suburbs and exurbs, was common during the pandemic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Sacramento, Las Vegas, Florida Top List of Most Popular Destinations<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sacramento, CA and Las Vegas were the most popular destinations for relocating house hunters in the fourth quarter.

Those places both attracted a lot of new residents during the pandemic remote-work era, and now some of those people are moving away as they return to the office; Los Angeles is the top out-of-state destination for those moving away from Austin.
