Michigan CEO: Soul-Crushing Sprawl Killing Business | Rust Wire

It's nearly a certainty that we will have to relocate (or at a minimum
expand ) our business out of Michigan if we want to grow.
People - particularly affluent and educated people - just don't want to
live here. For example, below are charts of migration patterns based on
IRS data Black is inbound, red is outbound. Even though the CA
economy is in very bad shape, there is still a mass migration to San
Francisco vs. mass outbound migration from Oakland County (most
notably to cities like SF, LA, Dallas, Atlanta, NY, DC, Boston, and
Philly) San Fran only seems to be losing people to Portland, a place
with even more open space and higher quality urban environments.
