Data was released last week by the Census Bureau through the American
Communities Survey (ACS) showing the in-flow and out-flow of people on county
level geography. The data, based on the 2005-2009 five year ACS estimates, allows
policymakers to get a sense of who is coming to their county, as well as where
former residents are relocating.
Below is a table covering both Herkimer and Oneida County
migration within the state of New
York. It shows the top 5 counties residents are
coming from over the period 2005 to 2009, as well as the top 5 places they are
going to within New York.
It also has data on the top 5 most positive net in-state migration gains.
To see the complete in-flow and out-flow of residents for
Herkimer and Oneida Counties within New York State,
here is a table showing the estimated migration to and from each county (as
well as the net impact) for our region.
