Leaving your home state to move to another can be for a variety of reasons. Starting a new job, enrolling in a new school, or even just to be closer to your family are just a few possibilities.

One data analyst, Robert Chase, asked the question: "When people move away from home where do they go?" Using census data from 2015, he created an interactive map of the United States that lists destinations for people leaving their states.
