It climbs one spot from its previous ranking behind South Carolina, which slides four spots after being the leading growth state for 2024.<\/p>\n<p>\nFlorida, North Carolina and Tennessee follow Texas as prime destinations. It\u2019s the same top five from 2024 and 2023, although in a different order.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe top 10 also includes Washington, Arizona, Idaho, Alabama and Georgia.<\/p>\n<p>\nWhile California\u2019s exodus of do-it-yourself movers was greater than any other state, it saw a smaller net loss in 2025 than in 2024. Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey and Illinois also rank among the bottom five on the index.<\/p>\n<p><b>Growth formula<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nU-Haul ranks states by their net gain (or loss) of customers who rented a one-way truck, trailer or U-Box<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> moving containers in one state and dropped off their equipment in another state.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe U-Haul Growth Index is compiled from well over 2.5 million annual one-way transactions across the U.S. and Canada.<\/p>\n<p>\nWhile rankings may not correlate directly to population or economic growth, the U-Haul Growth Index is an effective gauge of how well states, metros and cities are attracting and maintaining residents.
