Migration to/from California

People move to and move out of California all the time. But where are the most common sources and where are the most popular destinations? This week, I got the state-to-state migration data from the US Census Bureau and visualized residents’ migration to/from California.

My Visualization

This visualization has two sankey charts, showing migrations into and out of California respectively.

Please note that all the visualizations are designed for desktop view, so it is recommended to view them on a desktop device.
