The states that renters are moving into (and out of)

Southern states are among the most popular destinations for self-service moves, according to data collected by truck rental service U-Haul. South Carolina saw the most inbound one-way trips for the first time, moving from No. 4 in 2023 to No. 1 in 2024.
Texas, North Carolina, Florida and Tennessee followed on the list of most inbound migration. Texas had previously been the No. 1 growth state for move-ins between 2021 and 2023, and has ranked either first or second every year since 2016. Florida has ranked fourth or higher on the list every year since 2015.
California experienced the greatest net loss of do-it-yourself movers, and ranked 50th for the fifth consecutive year in 2025, followed by Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York.
