Moving out: Illinois has country’s worst outbound rate in 2016

The IPI is a bit of a right wing rag but this story should be a wake up call for ALL Illinois real estate investors and homeowners.

"Another troubling sign is the increasing flight of wealth and earning power associated with those moving out of Illinois. Migration data from the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, show that as of tax year 2014, the average income of taxpayers leaving Illinois was $77,000 per year compared to an average income of $57,000 per year for those moving into Illinois. This $20,000 differential between the average earnings of those moving out compared to those moving in is the worst in Illinois history and the worst in the country."
