The fastest-growing states by 2030 are shown as Nevada, Arizona,
Florida, Texas, Utah, Idaho, North Carolina, Georgia, Washington, and
Oregon.

Arizona, North Carolina, and Florida get most of their growth these days
from
retirees. I suppose most of the rest are mainly attracting businesses?
Georgia
certainly is.

Where did you get that info? NC, for one, is growing leaps and bounds in
the research triangle area, which is Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill. The
ocean, up and down the coast is booming, for tourism and the services
required to service the tourists.

No doubt, there are some retirees settling along the coast, but that is not
the largest percentage of property use; rather rentals and time shares.

Look at the growth of the Charlotte area. They are building a couple new
large high schools, every year. Retirees don't have that many kids. ;-)
