Of course most of those were from elsewhere but they moved here from somewhere in Florida.
In my case I moved to Florida in 1953 from Pa. but show that I moved here from Florida.

Top ten: NEW YORK, PENN, OHIO, MICH, NEW JERSEY, ILLINOIS, WISC, MASS, VIRGINIA, MARYLAND----Outside of Flordia of course which is number one by far.

I moved her from The Philippines, but I am listed as being from my native Massachusetts.

I wonder not just how many are from Canada, but how many from other foreign nations as well. Do you know that we have a Philippines club here?

I don't see Mexico on the list. Isn't that a State now?

deceptive, if you moved to Florida for a few months and then closed on a house they consider you from Florida. I have met many people like this but few native floridians

after 62 years I think it's safe to call you a Floridian.....I've only lived here 54 years now

I would not take the Daily Sun count on states for accuracy. It shows only 74 people coming from Texas and I know for a fact that 74 is inaccurate. The newspaper gets their figures from those who have land lines in TV. Most of the ones from TX have cell phones only. It has been requested that the newspaper correct their figures but they refuse to do it.

Surprised that NC has over 1000
 
I thought everyone in NC thought they were in heaven already! Great state for mostly mild temps. We were there for 27 years.

If you moved from NJ-you can live here on the taxes you used to pay

Most retiree's from MN/ND got to Arizona or Texas...peak leaves here next week! Looks like a Thunderbird drive to Itasca State Park..headwaters of the mighty Mississippi!

61,701 is the total
That sounds like the right number of households.

I moved my family from Ohio to Fla in 1971..44 yrs ago I imagine that's the case with most Floridians

I'm not real surprise because Mich. isn't a lot less but you would think Mich. would be closer to the 5,000 range only because I wonder where all of the Detroit people went since they're under bankruptcy. Besides now Ohio St. doesn't have to bad mouth to many Mich. football fans, just kidding, LOL!
