More than one-quarter of newcomers (28%) were Minnesota - <br />born residents, returning after a spell away. Half were born in another state, while just under one-quarter were <br />born outside of the United States. <br />At the same time, about 1 13,000 people left Minnesota for another state in the U.S. (see Figure 8). Many do not <br />go far: the most common destination for recent leavers is Wisconsin (16% of all out -migrants), followed by <br />North Dakota (12% of all out -migrants). The next most common destinations include the "Sun Belt" states of <br />Arizona (06) and Texas (6%), along with our southern neighbor, Iowa (6%). Recent leavers were almost equally <br />likely to be Minnesota -born (44%) as born in another U.S. state (46%). In addition, about I in 10 individuals <br />leaving Minnesota for another state was born outside of the U.S. <br />Figure 9: Characteristics Of Minnesota's Recent Arrivals And Leavers, At A Glance. <br />Source: IPUMS version of U.S. Censuz Bm eau'x 2008-2012 American Community Survey.
