Rank 28 of 51 by domestic migration per 1,000

Oregon

Oregon lost 7,602 residents to other states over this window and gained 52,903 from other countries. Net migration is positive only because the second number is larger than the first: without international arrivals, Oregon would be losing people to migration.

Measured as counts rather than rates, the channel that moved the most people in Oregon over 2021–2024 was international migration. That is a statement about volume, not direction: a channel can be the largest by losing.
