County-to-County Migration Based on Tax Return Data
Abstract
The Internal Revenue Service has released updated county-to-county migration data based on matched household tax returns filed through 2019. In this issue of Data Points, authors Carlos Navarro and Andrew Rettenmaier compare changes in the average real adjusted gross income per person for immigrants, emigrants, and non-movers from 1995-2018 and the relationship between counties’ average migrant and non-migrant incomes for the year 2018. Additionally, the authors examine the lowest and highest adjusted gross income, as well as immigration and emigration ratios, for counties with populations over 250,000 residents.
