OUT-OF-STATERS COMING TO COLORADO FASTER THAN ANY OTHER STATE IN THE UNION, ACCORDING TO U-HAUL

By a nearly 2 to 1 margin, out-of-staters are moving into Colorado faster than any other state in the country. So says the 2007 U-Haul Top 10 U.S. States Growth Report, reflecting the nation’s top growth states for families who moved during 2007.

The report indicates that for states with more than 20,000 families moving, Colorado had the highest percentage of growth, with 7.01 percent more families moving into the state than out. Oregon was second, with a gain of 3.67%, and Kentucky (3.28%) was the only other state with growth above 3%.
