Relatively few Americans moved this year, and those who did find new homes didn’t travel far.
The Census Bureau estimated this week about 36.5 million people, or about 12 percent of the population, will have moved this year. Although up slightly from last year, the rate at which Americans moved has steadily declined since the 1980s, reaching a record low last year of only 11.6 percent.
