For those that know me, I've lived in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts all my life. I've seen many awesome things happen over the years including so many different weather patterns. But I've noticed something that's actually pretty depressing if you ask me. That is the fact that everyone seems to be leaving the state!

According to a United Van Lines National Movers Study, Massachusetts made number seven on the list of the "most moved from" state for the year 2022. 57 percent of their customer moves in Massachusetts were heading out of state. But when Mass. residents leave, thankfully they don't move too far!

You guessed it! The Sunshine State of Florida. Which also made the most common place to retire along with states such as Maine, Pennsylvania, Vermont, and South Carolina.
