Nevada Ranked 2nd Favorite Moving Destination In Western U.S.

Americans looking to relocate seem to think Nevada’s a good choice.

The Reno Gazette-Journal reports the Silver State is the second most popular moving destination in the Western United States.

That’s according to the 2015 National Movers Study by national moving company United Van Lines.

Only Oregon was a more popular destination in the West than Nevada. Nevada’s inbound rate of 57 percent also placed it seventh overall among all states in the country.

This ranking suggests Nevada is still recovering from job and real estate problems brought by the last recession.
