In this article by Bizjournals, we learned that Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater area ranked No.4 in the U.S. in terms of biggest net inflow of new residents.

As also mentioned in the article; since the coronavirus pandemic, more and more people are realizing that by relocating outside of larger cities such as Los Angeles and New York, they’re able to cut their living expenses in half and be closer to friends and family back home.
