Miami-Dade loses residents to Broward

More Miami-Dade County residents are moving to Broward County than any other county-to-county migration in Florida.

About 25,000 Miami-Dade residents relocated to Broward in 2011, the Associated Press reported, citing the latest U.S. Census Bureau figures released Thursday. That represented the sixth-largest county-to-county migration flow in the nation. Only Los Angeles and its surrounding counties had higher migration flows.

Other significant migrations included Caribbean residents moving to Miami-Dade County and Hillsborough County residents moving to Pasco County in the Tampa area. [AP]Eric Kalis
