Directional market research

Moving is a route,
not a generic comparison.

These 40 corridors start with a measured IRS tax-return household flow, then show what changes in rent, home value, income, employment, regional prices and climate exposure at the destination.

Start where the move starts

IRS records do not identify renters or predict demand. Each route keeps that boundary visible and uses housing evidence as separate context.
