Forbes recently did a list thanks to information from the USPS listing the top 10 states people are leaving and the top 10 states that people are moving into.

I think for a lot of us in Colorado, it isn’t a surprise that people are leaving our state.  Yes, it’s beautiful and I can’t imagine living anywhere else, BUT it’s is also expensive and difficult to purchase a first home.

Another factor listed is the change in the political landscape.
