The Harris Poll: "Florida, California, Hawaii Top States Where Americans Want to Live"

The graph below is from The Harris Poll and Florida comes in at #1 overall, topping California and Hawaii!
Florida is #2 for Millennials and the GenXers and #1 choice for women.
Here is an excerpt from the article by the polling group Harris:
     For the first time since 2001, Florida, our nation’s 27th state, is back on top as Americans’ most desired habitation destination. [emphasis added] When asked where – excluding their current state – they would most like to live, The Sunshine State is at the top of the list. Sunshine and waterfront acreage are consistent themes at the top of this list, with California (2) and Hawaii (3) rounding out the top three. Turning away from beachfront territories, Colorado (4) and New York (5) close out the top five states Americans would like to live in.
     These are some of the results of The Harris Poll of 2,232 U.S. adults surveyed online between November 11 and 16, 2015.
     Despite some re-ordering, this year’s top five were, for the most part, also top-five honorees in 2013 (the last time this question was asked); the sole exception is New York, which edged into the top-five after a sixth place showing last time around. Texas, meanwhile, drops out of the top five and into 6th place this year.
And it doesn't hurt Florida's image to have funky, quirky cities like Lake Worth on the Atlantic Coast either.
Lake Worth is located next to the Town of Palm Beach (33480), south of West Palm Beach, and with Delray Beach only a few minutes south it's the perfect getaway for tourists, visitors, and Snowbirds alike. Come Visit Lake Worth and tell all your friends and family about us:
