The population of America is growing every year, but that growth is not even.  The change in state populations can only by births and deaths.  However, the biggest change in state populations comes from state-to-state movement, such as those in search of a better quality of life.  “Since new residents can signal economic opportunity, more tax dollars, and, if substantial enough, even increase in political power of a state – state-to-state movement is serious business” (Kathy Morris, Zippia.com).  Here is a frequency distribution graph showing the states where American workers report they want to live in 2020 (and where they may be relocating to).    Which five states had the largest population increases? Write one or two sentences describing the effect of this population increase or decrease in the southwestern United States.
