Let's see how many people move within Alabama versus those who moved from Heart of Dixie to another state.

Moved Within AL

Moved out of AL
56%

The intrastate moves (44%) and interstate moves (56%) originating in the state of Alabama come relatively close with a difference of around 10%.

Planning and organizing a cross-country move is considered to be more challenging than preparing for a local move. And yet, that fact has not affected the distribution between local and long-distance moves as more Alabamians have chosen to move out of the state.
