Everyone talks about Texas and Florida. But South Carolina? That's the real winner.
New IRS data just dropped & here's the surprise: South Carolina is now Fastest-Growing state in the country — when you look at it per person
Let me put it this way: For every 100 people already living in South Carolina, one new person moved in from another state. That's just over 1% of its population. Texas & Florida still bring in more people overall because they're massive. But per capita? South Carolina wins.
The numbers: Between 2022 & 2023, the Palmetto State added:
59,000+ new residents
29,000+ new tax filers
$4.1 billion in income
Where are people leaving? The usual suspects. California lost over 100,000 tax filers & nearly 12 billion. New York lost nearly 72k tax filers & about 10 billion & not just anyone — some of the highest earners are packing up.
Why? Lower taxes. More jobs. Better quality of life. That's what Americans keep saying.
The bigger picture: This isn't just about people moving. It's about money moving. It's about economic power shifting from blue states to red states. And if the trend keeps going, it will reshape state economies for years to come.
Bottom line: Texas and Florida get the headlines. But South Carolina is growing faster than both. 🇺🇸
