From the Big Apple to the Sunshine State: Why So Many Are Moving — And How Your Vehicle Gets There

Why New Yorkers Are Moving to Florida

In recent years, the migration from New York to Florida has become a national trend. According to Movers Not Shakers, over 71,000 New Yorkers relocated to Florida in 2023 alone. Meanwhile, South Florida received an economic boost of $9.2 billion in income from these newcomers. (Discover South Florida)

Main Reasons for the Move

1. Lower Taxes & Cost of Living
New York’s high taxes and living expenses drive residents to seek more affordable alternatives. Florida’s no state income tax and lower housing costs make it an appealing option.

2. Warmer Climate & Lifestyle
Florida offers sunshine, beaches, and a slower pace of life, contrasting New York’s hustle and crowded streets. Cities like Miami, Tampa, and Orlando are popular destinations for transplants. (The Edit)

3. Remote Work Opportunities
The rise of remote work allows professionals to relocate without disrupting careers. Many New Yorkers are now taking advantage of this flexibility.

4. Ongoing Migration Patterns
The trend shows no signs of slowing, with consistent year-over-year increases in migration to Florida. (Movers Not Shakers)
