Land values will continue to rise in these;

Here's a look at the actual 10 fastest growing states in the Union for 2020:
1. North Dakota
2. Texas
3. Utah
4. Colorado
5. Florida

My land just went up in price "again" after this election.

Going up quite a bit in Montana as well. I had my eye on a few places out there, now they are out of budget. Locally in Central MN everything is sky high, folks fleeing the cities and moving past the suburbs.

We live 1/2 hour outta San Antonio. We'll be selling in the spring (had that plan already in place due to my studies) and just about that time, the out of staters should be flowing in even more than now. Texas is going crazy. Folks with the means are moving here.
I have about one call a week from realtors now about our property.
I say hold
Hooooolllllld
Hooooooollllllllldddddd.

How can anyone stand the climate there in Texas?

I liked it. It was hot. So were the women. Not like here where we are impressed with the size of their chainsaws.

That photo doesn't make me want to relocate there. Looks like it would be hard to get a stake in the ground.

I agree on Texas women, but hate to be hot myself.

Mark, you mentioned the 10 fasted growing states but I only see 5 listed, what are 6 thru 10?

South Dakota, and LA. should be on the list Mark. I dont like heat so Alaska would be/is on my list.

Lot of Californians moving in.

People from all over moving here. My "new" neighbors are from Washington DC (retired DOD), OH, CA, and NC.
Cali guy Steve is VERY conservative.

6. Arizona
7. Washington
8. Nevada
9. Idaho
10.South Carolina

Glad to see virginia not on that list.

If these numbers show up in the census the political fallout will be interesting. Most of the growing states are red and the declining or stagnant states are blue. House apportionment and the Electoral College will be affected.

Texas will have 3 new US congressional seats next election. Great news is the state legislature remained red although one tech dude alone donated $12 M to try and swing the tide to blue for our upcoming redistricting. Red will redistrict. I live in a district that will be split into 2. I HOPE I won't have Henry Cuellar any more, the open up the border at all cost Dem, who pays no attention to any conservative voice except perhaps the 2nd amendment. I think we'll be voting. on a new US congressman next election cycle. My area east of San Antonio is hard core red.

Unfortunately, it appears a lot of people moved out of CA as they were not happy. They moved to CO and turned it into CA-East.
Watch out for the hostile takeover of the red states.

I live in a blue state.

We hear a lot about the young wealthy.
Us baby boomers have the hand on the wealth steering wheel however according to CNBC in a 2016 article.
Born from 1946-1964.

The study found that the average American millennial household today (ages 20 to 35 in 2016) has an average net worth of $100,800, while the average American baby boomer household today (ages 52 to 70 in 2016) has a net worth of $1.2 million (all values are adjusted for inflation), reported Mallika Mitra for CNBC. Could a windfall from the richest generation – baby boomers – reverse the fortunes for millennials? Unlike millennials, baby boomers are the wealthiest generation in history – and will remain that way until roughly 2030.

Oh boy. Baby boomers are on the move everywhere. But we probably all already knew that.
Health, wealth, weather, politics are all reasons they are moving.

I wish there was somewhere left to go! Things are still okay here in Ks, but the ciities keep flexing their muscle. All I want is to be left alone to make my own decisions, good or bad. No master needed!

What Lee said!
