In a new report, SeniorLiving.org examines a decade of migration data from American Community Surveys (ACS) to explore this trend among people 50+
Here’s where Virginia stands:
- VA is the No. 8 destination for people 50+ with 44K residents 50+ migrating from out of state
- Most of those 50+ that relocate to VA originate from FL, MD, NY, NC, and PA, respectively
- Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford metro area saw one of the greatest increases in 50+ relocations—in a 10-year span growth spiked 3.2x
Retirement relocation is a common move. In fact, 41% of people aged 50 and older who move to a new city or state are unemployed. Your Virginia readers may want to see how their city and state ranks.
Lets hope those coming to Virginia are conservatives who believe in the US Constitution and the 1st and 2nd Amendments. We don’t need any more crazy liberal progressive communists who seek to destroy the country. Don’t turn our state into the broken communities you left.
