In this episode of The Den, we dive into the intriguing topic of the Sunbelt region of the United States, exploring why so many people are migrating to this area. Our discussion kicks off with a light-hearted banter about the appeal of living in states like New Mexico, Arizona, Texas, and Florida, particularly for those seeking a more affordable lifestyle and better weather.
We highlight the significant migration trends over the past few decades, noting that nearly 50% of Americans currently reside in the Sunbelt, with projections suggesting this could rise to 55% in the next 10 to 15 years. The team shares personal takes on the quality of life improvements that come with moving south, such as reduced traffic, lower living costs, and the absence of harsh winters.
The conversation also touches on the impact of remote work, especially post-COVID, which has allowed individuals to relocate to more desirable areas without sacrificing their careers. We discuss the appeal of the Sunbelt’s warmer climate, outdoor activities, and the potential for economic growth as more companies establish themselves in the region.
As we wrap up, we reflect on the unique characteristics of New Mexico, our home base, and ponder why it hasn’t gained more popularity despite its many advantages. We conclude with a fun segment where each of us shares our top three Sunbelt locations, highlighting the diverse preferences and experiences that make this region so appealing.
