Minnesota Saw A 9% Growth According to U-Haul

The report is from U-Haul, and here's what it said about Minnesota,

People arriving in Minnesota in one-way U-Haul trucks rose 9% over 2021, while departures also rose nearly 9%. Overall moving traffic slowed throughout most of the U.S. but stayed busy in the North Star State in 2022.

U-Haul went on to say that 9% growth helped Minnesota maintain the #17 spot (that's where we landed one year ago).

Minnesota’s top growth city is Minneapolis. Other notable net-gain markets include St. Paul, Rochester, Mankato-North Mankato, Maplewood, Brainerd, St. Cloud, Apple Valley, Detroit Lakes, and Grand Rapids.
