Arizona is one of the hottest destinations for migrating Americans — especially those of older generations.

Boomers — those born between 1946 and 1964 — have made the Grand Canyon State a choice moving destination in the past year. Arizona ranked No. 4 among U-Haul’s top net-gain states for that generational cohort between July 2025 and June 2026. Generation X is another cohort that likes Arizona.
