The national mover rate between 2013 and 2014 was 11.5%, or 37 million people aged 1 and older, according to the latest data from the US Census Bureau.
That figure is in line with recent years, hovering between 11.5 and 12.5% since 2008, and is down from about 1 in 5 people when the survey began in 1948. Youth continued to be the most likely to move, as 21.4% of 18-24-year-olds and 20.7% of 25-34-year-olds did so during the 2013-2014 period.
The Census Bureau notes that suburban migration continues, with suburbs having a net gain of 2.2 million movers, while principal cities had a net loss of 1.7 million.
As expected, renters also continued to be the most likely to move, with almost one-quarter (24.5%) living elsewhere the year period.
By contrast, the mover rate among those living in owner-occupied housing units was 5%.
