One moving company said last week that Iowa had more people moving out of the state than moving in; this week another national mover suggests the migration trend is nearly balanced. U-Haul ranked Iowa the No. 12 growth state for 2017, with both arrivals and departures dropping 1 percent from 2016, according to a release. Arriving trucks accounted for 50.6 percent of one-way U-Haul traffic last year. Iowa City, Cedar Rapids and Ames were among Iowa’s leading cities for arrivals. Growth states are calculated by the net gain of one-way U-Haul truck rentals entering a state versus leaving a state during a calendar year. Migration trends data are compiled from more than 1.7 million one-way U-Haul truck rental transactions that occur annually, according to the release. Texas was the No. 1 growth state for the second year in a row. Florida, Arkansas, South Carolina and Tennessee rounded out the top five. View the 2017 U-Haul rankings here. Last week, Atlas Van Lines said 55 percent of its Iowa traffic was leaving the state.
