Surprising Red State Becomes New Hotspot For Gen Z Workers

[ZERO] South Carolina is rapidly becoming one of America's most attractive destinations for young workers, as affordable living, expanding employment opportunities and a growing economy draw Generation Z away from traditional economic powerhouses.

The Palmetto State recorded a net influx of 22,843 Gen Z adults in 2024, the largest gain of any state, according to a new LendingTree analysis of U.S. Census Bureau data.

An estimated 60,223 adults ages 18 to 27 moved into South Carolina, compared with 37,380 who departed.

The migration reflects a broader shift in where younger Americans are choosing to build their careers, with housing costs and economic opportunity increasingly influencing decisions.
