The U.S. population center is on track this decade to take a southern swerve for the first time in history, and it's because of people like Owen Glick, who moved from California to Florida more than a year ago.

Glick, 56, and his then-partner moved to the Orlando area from metro San Diego in December 2021 after he retired from his job in corporate sales. They had been making regular trips to central Florida before their move, to check on rental properties they had purchased because they were more affordable in the Sunshine State than in Southern California.

If the trend continues through the rest of this decade, by 2030 the mean center of the U.S. population will head due south from Since the population center was first calculated to be in Chestertown, Maryland, in 1790, it has moved North Carolina state demographer Michael Cline said the growth in the South has been “above and beyond” trends the region experienced before the pandemic, which he thinks may have accelerated many movers’ decisions to relocate from cold-climate states or allowed people to work remotely for the first time.

Wow a guy who is fine with being photographed with a pickleball racket left California to move to America’s Dicksack and leisure around with mediocre rejects getting drunk in strip mall chain restaurant bars. What a loss. How will we recover.

So California is in the North now?

SethAbramson You know who's moving down south where's there's a huge WELCOME MAGA sign? Your women aren't liberated Your children aren't educated Your officials are complicit + human life doesn't matter Down south is not safe if you believe in truth, justice + rights for all.

SethAbramson We are full - no vacancies ..

So glad I decided to finally buy a house the same year as the instant gentrification of the South took place & doubled the price

SethAbramson As a person born and raised in California, I say…

SethAbramson Know this before you move to Georgia

Imagine that, sane people don't like living in a dictatorship and leave when they get the chance.

Cause California doesn’t go far enough south?

You’re more than welcome if you leave your leftist ways behind. Don’t bring the failed policies that made your previous home unlivable.

SethAbramson And after unchecked global warming decimates the south, with places like Florida becoming permanently underwater, that trend will reverse.

SethAbramson Good.

Like a cancer… liberals ruined such states as California, Illinois, and New York with their failed policies. Now they want to flee and attempt to spread their failed policies in places like Florida and Texas.

Trending south, as in older and nobody paying taxes

SethAbramson Yes please take them.

Florida Man 'cracks knuckles'

SethAbramson I wouldn’t move to a “southern state” now due to the women-killing abortion laws.

SethAbramson Good luck if you have any needs that require public funding. Also watch out for Florida Man

'The West would have lost population if not for immigrants and births outpacing deaths.' That is normally how it works, yes.

'The' U.S. population?

People are fleeing the states ruined by Democrats. Not surprising.

Hopefully they leave their shitty politics in the shorty states they ran away from.

California to Florida is not south, is moving east

I like that Texas is getting more civilized. 🤷‍♂️

Afyer a heavy hurricane season waych all the right wingers now in florida become big believers in socialism.

While being profusely underpaid

They will regret it soon enough.

The temperate climate makes it tempting, but the racist, fascist, misogynistic leadership and laws make it a cold day in hell before I’d live there.

That seems... excessively stupid.

Much better weather in Florida

And in Florida they will continue to build while ignoring the fact that our water resources are stretched thin.

From a 3rd-world country to a 1st-world country

California when from the golden state to this shithole state.

Good luck with that.

Why anyone would move to any coastal area is beyond me. Weather patterns along coast keep getting worse.

Rational people are fleeing democrat madness.

I think it's due to Americans not having good financial management skills

Just when ya'll come, we don't want to hear 'Well back home, we did it this way...' You sure did, you effed it up too!

Democrats are going to export their ideology ALL over the country, they outnumber us conservatives. Soon our country will be unrecognizable…

Stay there Owen. Enjoy July and august when your feet fry walking across a parking lot.

Why are people leaving California for states like Florida and Texas?

Who wrote this tweet?

good. maybe northerners will smarten up the place.

Let’s see how well these transplants do after their first Cat5 🌀 Hurricane. Don’t let the ink dry on this article just yet.
