Smaller share of US residents movingAmericans are moving at the lowest rate on record, according to Census Bureau figures.Last year, 11 percent of Americans moved, the lowest annual rate recorded since the government started keeping track in 1948. The highest moving rates were in the late 1940s and 1950s, when about 20 percent of Americans moved each year.Among those who moved, 42 percent cited a housing-related reason, such as the desire for a better home. About 27 percent cited a family reason, and 20 percent said they moved because of a job.“People in the United States are still moving, just not to the same extent as they did in the past,” said David Ihrke, a Census Bureau statistician.
