New Census Bureau Migration Data Detail Specific

County-to-County Moves For Every County in Hawaii

Focus on Hawaii County

The U.S. Census Bureau reported today on all of Hawaii’s counties from where residents

were most likely to have moved from and moved to over a one-year period between 2007 and

2011.

Among Hawaii County residents, 6,555 or 3.6 percent, lived in a different county one year

earlier. The Hawaii counties they were most likely to have come from were the City & County

of Honolulu and Maui County. Counties on the continental U.S. that these residents were most

likely to have moved from included Virginia Beach City (Virginia), Ventura County (California),

San Francisco County (California), and Orange County (California).

About 8,474 residents moved away from Hawaii County during the course of the year. The

most common county destinations in Hawaii for these movers were City & County of Honolulu

and Maui County while the top continental U.S. destinations included Los Angeles (California),

King County (Washington), Jackson County (Oregon) and Maricopa County (Arizona)

In addition to the county-to-county data provided above, information on in-migrants from

foreign locations was also available. For Hawaii, this is an important factor because many of our

migrants come from areas such as Asian, the Oceania region and Europe. Of the 1,009 resident

coming from foreign areas, the top regions that they arrived from were Asia and the region

Oceania and At Sea.

This information is based on statistics from the American Community Survey, which shows

how many U.S. residents moved from one county to another during the course of a year. Today’s

release includes a set of 2007-2011 statistical tables that present information on movers by

educational attainment, individual income and household income. These statistics can also be

explored using the Census Flows Mapper, an interactive mapping application that allows users to

visualize movers by data such as educational attainment and income.

Among people with a graduate or professional degree, the top counties that migrants came to

Hawaii County from were California (no county specified), Asia, Los Angeles County

(California), Utah (no county specified), and Wisconsin (no county specified). The top areas that

these people left Hawaii for were the City & County of Honolulu (Hawaii), San Diego County

(California), Kauai County (Hawaii), King County (Washington), Alameda County (California),

Maui County (Hawaii) and Kenai Peninsula Borough County (Alaska).

Similar statistics are available for every county nationwide through the tables released today.

Additionally, more findings are available in a working paper also released today, and users can

find more information about how to use the flow tables and mapping tool in a PowerPoint

tutorial.

About the American Community Survey

The American Community Survey provides a wide range of important statistics about all

communities in the country. It gives communities the current information they need to plan

investments and services. Retailers, homebuilders, police departments, and town and city

planners are among the many private- and public-sector decision makers who count on these

annual results.

The Census Bureau uses information collected over five years from the American Community

Survey in order to have more accurate and reliable statistics for areas with populations smaller

than 20,000. Statistics for larger areas are also included with this release, making comparisons

across large and small geographies possible.

The data represents the average characteristic of an area over the entire 5-year period. About

8% of Hawaii’s population was sampled during this time.

New Census Bureau Migration Data Detail Specific

County-to-County Moves For Every County in Hawaii

Focus on the City & County of Honolulu

The U.S. Census Bureau reported today on all of Hawaii’s counties from where residents

were most likely to have moved from and moved to over a one-year period between 2007 and

2011.

Among the City & County of Honolulu residents, 45,085 or 4.8 percent, lived in a different

county one year earlier. The Hawaii counties they were most likely to have come from were

Hawaii County and Maui County. Counties on the continental U.S. that these residents were

most likely to have moved from included San Diego County (California), Los Angeles County

(California), Bexar County (Texas) and Clark County (Nevada).

About 49,520 residents moved away from City & County of Honolulu during the course of

the year. The most common county destinations in Hawaii for these movers were Maui County

and Hawaii County, while the top continental U.S. destinations included Clark County (Nevada),

San Diego County (California), Los Angeles County (California) and Bexar County (Texas).

In addition to the county-to-county data provided above, information on in-migrants from

foreign locations was also available. For Hawaii, this is an important factor because many of our

migrants come from areas such as Asian, the Oceania region and Europe. Of the 14,133 resident

coming from foreign areas, the top regions that they arrived from were Asia and Europe.

Page 9: New Census Bureau Migration Data Detail Specific County-to ...files.hawaii.gov/dbedt/census/acs/ACS2011/2011... · visualize movers by data such as educational attainment and income.

This information is based on statistics from the American Community Survey, which shows

how many U.S. residents moved from one county to another during the course of a year. Today’s

release includes a set of 2007-2011 statistical tables that present information on movers by

educational attainment, individual income and household income. These statistics can also be

explored using the Census Flows Mapper, an interactive mapping application that allows users to

Among people with a graduate or professional degree, the top counties that migrants came to

the City & County of Honolulu from were San Diego County (California), Hawaii County

(Hawaii), King County (Washington), Los Angeles County (California) and Bexar County

(Texas). The top areas that these people left Hawaii for were San Diego County (California),

Los Angeles County (California), Sacramento County (California), Cook County (Illinois), and

the District of Columbia. It is significant, however, that the data showed that about 24% of all

incoming people with advance degrees came from the foreign areas of Asia and Europe.

Similar statistics are available for every county nationwide through the tables released today.

Additionally, more findings are available in a working paper also released today, and users can

find more information about how to use the flow tables and mapping tool in a PowerPoint

tutorial.

New Census Bureau Migration Data Detail Specific

County-to-County Moves For Every County in Hawaii

Focus on Maui County

The U.S. Census Bureau reported today on all of Hawaii’s counties from where residents

were most likely to have moved from and moved to over a one-year period between 2007 and

2011.

Among Maui County residents, 7,142 or 4.7 percent, lived in a different county one year

earlier. The Hawaii counties they were most likely to have come from were the City & County

of Honolulu and Hawaii County. Counties on the continental U.S. that these residents were

most likely to have moved from included Orange County (California), Door County (Wisconsin),

Multnomah County (Oregon) and Denton County (Texas).

About 8,141 residents moved away from Maui County during the course of the year. The

most common county destinations in Hawaii for these movers were City & County of Honolulu

and Hawaii County, while the top continental U.S. destinations included Clark County (Nevada),

Riverside County (California), San Diego County (California) and Los Angeles County

(California).

In addition to the county-to-county data provided above, information on in-migrants from

foreign locations was also available. For Hawaii, this is an important factor because many of our

migrants come from areas such as Asian, the Oceania region and Europe. Of the 1,031 residents

Page 23: New Census Bureau Migration Data Detail Specific County-to ...files.hawaii.gov/dbedt/census/acs/ACS2011/2011... · visualize movers by data such as educational attainment and income.

coming from foreign areas, the top regions were Asia, Oceania and Northern America (which

include areas such as Bermuda and Canada).

This information is based on statistics from the American Community Survey, which shows

how many U.S. residents moved from one county to another during the course of a year. Today’s

release includes a set of 2007-2011 statistical tables that present information on movers by

educational attainment, individual income and household income. These statistics can also be

explored using the Census Flows Mapper, an interactive mapping application that allows users to

visualize movers by data such as educational attainment and income.

Among people with a graduate or professional degree, the top counties that migrants came to

About the American Community Survey

The American Community Survey provides a wide range of important statistics about all

communities in the country. It gives communities the current information they need to plan

investments and services. Retailers, homebuilders, police departments, and town and city

planners are among the many private- and public-sector decision makers who count on these

annual results.

The Census Bureau uses information collected over five years from the American Community

Survey in order to have more accurate and reliable statistics for areas with populations smaller

than 20,000. Statistics for larger areas are also included with this release, making comparisons

across large and small geographies possible.

The data represents the average characteristic of an area over the entire 5-year period. About

8% of Hawaii’s population was sampled during this time.
