The United States experienced negative net migration in 2025, with more people leaving than arriving for the first time in 90 years – and the trend is expected to continue, according to a report. The last time the phenomenon occurred was in 1935 at the height of the Great Depression, when more than 100,000 Americans struggling to make ends meet applied to emigrate to the Soviet Union to work in its factories, manufacturing plants and mills in pursuit of a fairer way of life. Now history is repeating itself: according toThe Wall Street Journal, which cites data from the Brookings Institution, the U.S. headcount showed a 150,000 deficit last year, while the country recorded a total in-migration of between 2.6 and 2.7 million, down from a recent high of 6 million in 2023.

Massachusetts, long a bastion of progressive politics and high taxes, has quietly watched the equivalent of one-and-a-half Cambridges pack up and leave. A new analysis from the Pioneer Institute finds that more than 182,000 net domestic residents exited the commonwealth between April 2020 and July 2025, a sustained outflow that researchers describe as a lasting structural shift rather than a brief pandemic aftershock. The report, "The Massachusetts' Labor Force: Now and Beyond," paints a picture of a state grappling with affordability pressures, demographic decline and slowing economic momentum.

In its 250th year, is America, land of immigration, becoming a country of emigration? Last year the U.S. experienced something that hasn't definitively occurred since the Great Depression: More people moved out than moved in. The Trump administration has hailed the exodus—negative net migration—as the fulfillment of its promise to ramp up deportations and restrict new visas. Beneath the stormy optics of that immigration crackdown, however, lies a less-noticed reversal: America's own citizens are leaving in record numbers, replanting themselves and their families in lands they find more affordable and safe. Since the Eisenhower administration, the U.S. hasn't collected comprehensive statistics on the number of citizens leaving. Yet data on residence permits, foreign home purchases, student enrollments and other metrics from more than 50 countries show that Americans are voting with their feet to an unprecedented degree. A millions-strong diaspora is studying, telecommuting and r…
