Looks like a pretty accurate graph. I know Oregon is blue due to the outflux of Californians. Just a matter of time before Oregon turns red.

Duh. This has been going on for decades. The outbound states are mostly the immigration states. The inbound states are mostly where old people go to die after making their money.

mostly poor people who can't afford a house leave CA anyways.
they can go live in states where housing has not gone up in the last 10 years because nobody cares to go there. snow, rain, hurricanes, tornadoes, ignorant rednecks, Trump supporters. all these great things await.

You referring to outbound migration? Or voting Republican?
Because the migration thing will probably happen in the next 10 years. As for voting Republican, yeah, that'll never happen in OR - especially with all the stoners in Portland.
Oh yeah, soon as hell freezes.

You can go from a $500,000 condo to a $300,000 new house by moving from California to the nearby states. Add to that lower prices for most commodities, little or no state income tax, less smog and traffic. If your job pays more or less the same, moving out of California is clearly a jump in the standard of living.
If you can't afford to buy even a condo in California, with no hopes of ever making enough to buy one, you should move. I would move to Florida, Texas, Nevada, Arizona, or Washington.

From the study link:
According to the latest information published by the U.S. Census Bureau the percentage of people that move every year equates to 14% of the population (or roughly 40 million).
Our Methodology
This is our data of all state inbound and out bound COD moves( consumer moves). We define the top inbound and outbound state as those that have the highest proportion of moves where the absolute value difference of inbound and outbound moves is greater than or equal to 400. This weeds out states that had a small number of moves but would have a high ratio of inbound/outbound moves.

I don't understand this. What do the percentage for each state represent?

Illinois should change itself to the pariah state from the prairie state!
I mean the entire dem caucus-or at least vast majority-voted to throw people in jail for adopting right to work laws. Pigs, fattened pigs the whole stupid state. I guess it ahs to collapse before it gets better.

IL the land of Obama is ready for the big melt down as pensions, welfare cases, and politicians milk the tax payers dry. It’s time to starve the beast.
But that is just a couple of many interesting takeaways to be gleaned from the latest annual "U.S. Migration Report" from North American Moving Services which found that Illinois was the most ditched state in 2017.
A quick review of the data above, combined with the more comprehensive domestic migration map below, reveals a few other interesting themes:
1. People continue to flee the indebted, pension ponzi burdened liberal states of America in record numbers, with Illinois, Connecticut, New Jersey and California all ranking at the very top of the most ditched states of 2017.
2. The natural migratory pattern of New England and California's liberal elitists seems to be toward cheaper and lower taxed states in the Southeast and Western portions of the country...go figure.
Of course, this data from North American shouldn't come as much of a surprise as we recently noted that Illinois lost a staggering ~125,000 residents in aggregate, or roughly 1 man/woman/child every 4.3 minutes for the entire year of 2017.
Of course, the overall trend of folks moving out of 'Blue States' and into "Red States' could spell disaster conservative politicians running in national elections...that is unless the folks ditching their over-taxed, insolvent, liberal bastions on the West Coast and New England actually understand that the conservative policies in their new home states are precisely what attracted them there in the first place...somehow we doubt that will happen.
