Moving within vs moving out of Illinois

Let's see how many people move within Illinois versus those who moved from Prairie State to another state.

Moved Within IL

Moved out of IL

From a statistical point of view, the relocation scene in Illinois goes like this: 30% local moves vs. 70% interstate moves. So, more than half of the home movers have decided to move out of the state.
