U-Haul Growth Index says Texas continues to attract new residents
Darren Dunn
(San Antonio) -- A new study shows that more people are again moving to Texas. U-Haul recently released its latest growth index. Texas has consistently been near the top of the list, finishing second this year behind South Carolina.
U-Haul’s Matt Merrill says southern states, like Texas, continue to attract new people, who are looking for jobs or a lower cost of living.
“We see a lot of customers moving out of our blue states coming down to the South, to the red states. A lot of that has to do with a pro-business (climate) and less government control,” said Merrill.
Merrill says many of these people, who are moving here, are coming from states up north, or from the west coast.
“We see a lot of customers moving here from Illinois -- the Chicago market, (from) New York, and lots and lots of customers are relocating here from California,” said Merrill.

Free coats available on rack in downtown Seguin
(Seguin) -- The colder weather has arrived, and so has help for people who don’t have clothing to keep themselves warm.
The Seguin Fire Department’s Facebook page recently posted about the free coats available in downtown Seguin.
The free “Share the Warmth” rack is located outside of Elevation Fitness, located at 110 W. Court St.
People who need a coat or jacket can take any of the ones that are currently available. Meanwhile, people who might have extra coats around their homes, can feel free to leave a jacket so that it can be used by others.
Post-holiday debt a challenge for many consumers
(undated) -- One popular New Years Resolution is to make better financial decisions. And, for many, that means cleaning up massive credit card debt.
“It's the holiday credit hangover. Consumers and businesses are really trying to figure out what the fourth quarter did to their bottom line,” said Meza.
Jason Meza with the Better Business Bureau of Texas says it's never easy to start. That first call, he says, should be to the credit card company. They can often work with you.
However, that means you need to stop using the card for additional purchases. Meza says that can be difficult for some, because inflation is making it harder for many folks to avoid using their credit cards.
“It's hard to get a hold of it sometimes because of Christmas (and) the holidays. Spending is up, but at the same time, now that first quarter is in -- credit card debt is at another record high,” said Meza.
Meza says if you need help getting out of debt, there are many
companies that can help. But he warns that you need to be cautious before you sign up.
“The company may promise a guaranteed low interest rate, but then they get you on the hook, they get you for fees and then they vanish,” said Meza.
The Federal Reserve reported last month that American's credit card debt hit the highest level on record. The report also showed new highs for balances on mortgages, auto loans and student debt.
U-Haul, continued.
According to the U-Haul Growth Index, South Carolina, Texas, North Carolina, Florida and Tennessee make up the top five destination for people looking to relocate. California experienced the greatest net loss of do-it-yourself movers in U-Haul equipment and ranks 50th for the fifth consecutive year.
Growth rankings are configured by each state’s net gain (or loss) of customers utilizing one-way U-Haul equipment in a calendar year. The U-Haul Growth Index is compiled from well over 2.5 million one-way U-Haul truck, trailer and U-Box® moving container transactions that occur annually.
“State-to-state transactions from the past year reaffirm customer tendencies that have been pronounced for some time,” stated John “J.T.” Taylor, U-Haul International president. “Migration to the Southeast and Southwest continues as families gauge their cost of living, job opportunities, quality of life and other factors that go into relocating to a new state. Out-migration remains prevalent for a number of markets across the Northeast, Midwest and West Coast — and particularly California.
South Carolina climbed three spots in the rankings to unseat Texas, which was the No. 1 growth state for
the previous three years (2021-23). Of all the U-Haul movers coming and going from the Palmetto State in 2024, more than 51.7 percent were arrivals. Texas has ranked first or second among U-Haul Growth States each year since 2016. Florida has been fourth or higher every year since 2015. New York, at No. 47 on the list, has its lowest growth ranking in a decade.
Oklahoma (+30), Indiana (+19) and Maine (+18) are the biggest risers year-over-year on the U-Haul Growth Index. Colorado (-31), Nevada (-24), Wyoming (-22) and New Mexico (-21) saw the biggest slides in 2024.
U-Haul also released its Growth Index for Metros. Dallas was the number one location on that list. Several also Texas cities also made the Top 25 Growth Metros list, including Austin (5), Houston (9), Brownsville/ McAllen (21), and Tyler (22).
While U-Haul rankings may not correlate directly to population or economic growth, the U-Haul Growth Index is said to be an effective gauge of how well states and cities are attracting and maintaining residents.
U-Haul officials say their company is the authority on migration trends thanks to its expansive network that blankets all 50 states and 10 Canadian provinces. The geographical coverage from 23,000-plus U-Haul rental locations provides a broad overview of where people are moving like no one else in the industry.

CDC Confirms America’s First Bird Flu Death
(Atlanta, GA) -- The CDC is confirming America’s first human bird flu death. CDC officials say the person who died was over 65-years-old, had underlying medical conditions and had been hospitalized in Louisiana with a severe case of bird flu. State health officials there say the H5N1 virus that causes avian flu was contracted through exposure to a non-commercial backyard chicken flock and wild birds. According to the CDC, there’ve been 66 confirmed human cases of bird flu in the U.S. as of 2024 but this is the first fatality.
CDC: Flu Emergency Room Visits “Very High”

Flu trends this year look to be similar to the 2019 to 2020 season, which also hit peak levels around the New Year.
Costco Recalls Cold Medication
