Given that New York is one of the most populous states in the country, the fact that almost 62% of United Van Lines customers are moving out (and opening up some real estate) should come as a relief to the many 18 to 34-year-olds who are moving in. Almost 61% of inbound moves are attributed to job changes, while the majority of outbound moves credit retirement for their relocation.
