We gotta get out of this place

From the Boston Globe: “Bay State exodus second only to N.Y.”:

Massachusetts lost more residents than it attracted in recent years, at a greater rate than any other state but New York, according to Census Bureau estimates released today.

The estimates show that between 2000 and 2004, more residents left Massachusetts than moved to the Bay State -- with an average annual exodus of 42,402 people. That amounts to a rate of 6.6 people leaving the state per 1,000, second only to New York's rate of 9.6 residents per 1,000 during that period.

Apparently Dave Loggins’ plea is falling on deaf ears. For all the latest on the Massachusetts governor’s race, check out Hub Politics.
