Nearly 400,000 Americans moved for retirement last year—the highest number in five years, according to a new study from HireAHelper, a moving services website. More retirees are showing a willingness to cross state lines to find a new home: Retirees are twice as likely to move to a different state than the general population.

HireAHelper analyzed Census Bureau survey data to pinpoint where retirees moved to since the COVID-19 pandemic began. They identified the following top state destinations for retirees in 2020:
- Virginia
- Florida
- Wyoming
- Pennsylvania
- Idaho
Retiring women and singles are most likely to choose Virginia, while couples and males are more likely to move to Florida, the study found.
Broken out on a city level, the following areas were the top retiree havens for 2020:
- Orlando, Fla.
- Charlottesville, Va.
- Waynesboro, Va.
- Roanoke, Va.
- Port St. Lucie, Fla.
Twenty-six percent of retirees moved away from cities and metro areas to find a smaller town to relocate to in retirement. The study found that the top states that retirees left to find haven in a new area last year were:
- Utah
- Maryland
- California
- Texas
- New Jersey
