How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Champaign County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 30% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
