It’s no secret that Nevada attracted many new individuals and families during last year as life returned to normal. While reasons vary from one individual to another as to why they made a move, some topped the cake. According to United Van Lines, who tracks inbound and outbound moves all across the country and their annual National Movers Study (source: https://www.unitedvanlines.com/newsroom/movers-study-2022), the following were top reasons people made Nevada their home:

24.81% – Retirement

8.53% – Health

31.01% – Family

17.83% – Lifestyle

25.58% – Job

13.95% – Cost

On the others hand, the top reasons people left Nevada are:

13.53% – Retirement

9.02% – Health

40.60% – Family

9.02% – Lifestyle

27.82% – Job

6.02% – Cost

All in all, a smidge more people moved out of Nevada than moved in. Either way, Nevada has seen tremendous growth over the last decade, specifically in the Las Vegas and Reno areas. We can expect an overall upward trend over the next few years.
