U-Haul Growth Index: Top U.S. Growth Metros and Cities of 2025 Announced<\/b><\/p>\n

Dallas repeats as leading metro, Ocala repeats as leading city proper on migration trends lists<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

PHOENIX–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nSecond verse, same as the first. The Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington metropolitan area once again takes top honors as the No. 1 U-Haul growth metro, replicating its 2024 honor with the greatest net gain of one-way customers during 2025.<\/p>\n

\"Dallas<\/p>\n

Dallas is the leading U.S. growth metropolitan area for the second year in a row based on one-way U-Haul customer transactions throughout 2025. Texas boasts the top three metros and six of the top 25. Ocala tops the U-Haul Growth Index as the No. 1 U.S. growth city proper for the third time in four years. Florida dominates the growth cities list with eight of the top 10 markets, and 12 of the top 25.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\nLikewise, the city proper of Ocala, Fla., retains the title of No. 1 U-Haul growth city, a distinction it also held for 2024 and 2022.<\/p>\n

Metros: Texas stronghold<\/b><\/p>\n

\nTexas metros litter the latest U-Haul Growth Index, claiming the top three spots (Dallas, Houston, Austin) and six of the top 25 growth metros.<\/p>\n

\nTop 10 metros for netting do-it-yourself movers in 2025 also include Charlotte, Phoenix, Nashville, Charleston, Raleigh, Atlanta and the Brownsville-McAllen corridor along the southern border of Texas.<\/p>\n

\nSome major metros to make the top 25 did so by reversing recent migration trends: San Francisco, Denver and Philadelphia saw more orange-clad moving equipment<\/b><\/a> leaving than arriving in 2024, only to post strong net-gain numbers in 2025.<\/p>\n

Cities: Florida dominates<\/b><\/p>\n

\nWhen it comes to cities luring U-Haul customers, Florida again rules the roost. The Sunshine State has eight of the top 10 growth cities and 12 of the top 25 for the past year.<\/p>\n

\nNorth Port, Kissimmee and Clermont join Ocala as Florida growth cities in the top five, along with Myrtle Beach, S.C. Texas has four city propers make the list, while Idaho has two.<\/p>\n

\nSeveral smaller cities are making their U-Haul Growth Index debuts such as St. Augustine, Fla.; Seguin, Texas; Leesburg, Fla.; Garner, N.C.; and Lacey, Wash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Growth formula<\/b><\/p>\n

\nU-Haul ranks metropolitan areas and city propers by their net gain (or loss) of customers who rented a one-way truck, trailer or U-Box\u00ae<\/sup> moving containers in one metro or city proper and dropped off their equipment in another metro or city proper. Interstate and intrastate transactions are included.<\/p>\n

\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

\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.
