People Making $200K a Year Are Moving to These 2 U.S. States

[ad_1]

Americans aged 25 to 34 earn an average annual salary of $56,160, according to data compiled by MarketWatch Guides.

However, some young U.S. workers are making that figure several times over — and relocating to places where their money will go further.

Financial technology company SmartAsset pulled IRS data to rank states by the net inflow of "young and rich" households — those aged 26 to 35 earning more than $200,000 a year — to find out where they're leaving and going.

California experienced the largest exit of young and wealthy households in 2022, with more than 3,000 departures, per the study. Illinois saw the second-highest loss at 1,323.

Meanwhile, young high-earners are relocating to Florida and Texas; both states attracted more than double the young, rich households as any other state, with net gains at 1,786 and 1,660, respectively, according to the data.

Half of the states witnessing an influx of young, rich households have no state income tax, SmartAsset reported.
