Some 5.5 million millennials moved to a large American city in 2023, according to a new report from SmartAsset.
Seventy-three percent of transplants moved to a big city within their current state of residents, 19% moved in from another state and about 8% came to U.S. cities from abroad.
The implications for both the communities millennials left and those they moved into can be significant, the report said, as this 25-to-44-year-old cohort are often in their prime earning years and many have young families.
SmartAsset researchers analyzed data from the U.S. Census Bureau 1-Year American Community Survey for 2023 for 271 cities that had available numbers and 100,000 or more people 1 year and older.
