Sure can't tell by all the new subdivisions, traffic congestions, apartments, condos, schools, and businesses that are sprouting up in Frederick, Montgomery, Prince Georges, Charles, Calvert, Baltimore, Harford, and Anne Arundel Counties. This article must be referring to Marylanders living in the Delmarva Peninsula are leaving to move to Virginia or North Carolina lol.

Maryland is expensive. It's the same characters that start these threads.

You can live in Idaho if you like, but way to remote, and it's not inexpensive. Same with Oregon with high housing costs and sky high property tax.

But yes, Maryland is not cheap.

Keep in mind that the state has a large military presence so that will play into it. Unless the 55+ year old military retiree gets a job as an overpaid consultant with a defense contractor he'll probably leave.

There are quite a few of those, as well as Civil Service retirees, near me (Calvert seems to draw them like a pile of crab shells draws flies) and many of them either leave or use their houses here as seasonal living if they don't stay.
A native since 2 years old, born in D.C., moved out 14 years ago and not 1 second of regret!

We have friends in NC, Delaware and up in New England and are looking over all our options .To make a thread up becuase you want to hate on the place is bush league.
" 95 % of them have nothing to do with the state itself." And you came up with this conclusion, how?

I moved out 14 years ago to a place where MANY left their home states and moved here.
The No.1 reason given is BECAUSE of their home states itself.

"Maryland is becoming a good state to be from", as I say, as FAR from as you can get!

And MANY are moving OUT, WAY from the nearby cities and surrounding suburbs.

It would be interesting to see a breakdown of Maryland natives who leave.
Born and raised Maryland. Left about 30 years ago. Although I'm fond of Maryland, I have no doubts that I prospered elsewhere for good reason by holding onto more of my hard earned money. Also, having lived through forced busing, declining school quality, left leaning BS and a lousy Police force at that time was also on the top of my list. I live in a State that border's Maryland, I know many who still live in Maryland but are now preparing to leave for good, building their new homes near me. Some have already done so.
