Buzzards Bay refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country replaces them almost one for one. Head count stayed flat all the same — arriving households are smaller (1.56 people on average) than the ones leaving (1.45), so the city gained homes without gaining residents.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $119,079 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Massachusetts report $174,209. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.
How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Barnstable County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 31% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
