Millennials Favor Short-term “Vacation Moves”

A new survey from moving giant Mayflower says that 2 in 5 millennials (those aged 18-35) have moved to a new city without any intention of permanently staying, calling them “vacation movers.”  Their study suggests that while they might flock to cool places (think Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, etc.) they don’t stick around and plant roots.  Interestingly, the 2017 Mayflower Mover Insights Study also said that over half (53%) of millennials say they’re likely to make a temporary, or “vacation,” move within the next five years and that 3/4 of them had a timeline in mind.  Sounds like they’ll make good renters.
