These Are The Top 5 States People From Wisconsin Are Moving To

Maybe it's a bit of a prolonged road trip.

For one reason or another people move states often, whether it's for a job, family, or just to get somewhere new.

Stacker looked at where people in Wisconsin are moving to the most, and what states have the most people moving into Wisconsin. Wisconsin was actually ranked 5th best state to move to so it's sure to be a popular destination.

But first, let's start with the top 5 states people are moving to from Wisconsin.

Where Wisconsinites Are Going

Like with Illinois, residents from the state are either moving closeby or all the way south.

• 5. Arizona (6,569 Wisconsin residents moved there)
• 4. Texas (9,388 people from Wisconsin moved there)
• 3. Florida (10,167)
• 2. Illinois (12,764)
• 1. Minnesota (18,702)

So either people want to be way out of the Midwest as a whole or they want to be kinda close by in either Minnesota or Illinois and just jump across state lines. That would definitely make going home for the holidays easier.

Who's Moving Into Wisconsin

Interestingly, most of the top 5 states that Wisconsinites move to are also in the top 5 that people move into Wisconsin from.

• 5. Texas (6,088 people moved to Wisconsin from Texas)
• 4. Florida (6,762)
• 3. California (7,537)
• 2. Minnesota (19,307)
• 1. Illinois (27,369)

So maybe a few states are really just kind of trading residents around?

The stats didn't break down any kind of categories of reasons for the moves (I can't imagine how you'd keep track of that) but there are way more states than just the top 5 that Wisconsinites are moving to and from. You can see those on Stacker's website.
