A new study reveals that the two states losing the most residents in 2017 and 2018 were once again New York and New Jersey.
A new study finds that New York and New Jersey are losing more residents than any other states.
The career website Zippia looked at the population data from the Census' American Community Survey to determine the states with the largest population decrease from 2017 to 2018, which is the most recent data available.
New York topped the list, losing 307,190 residents, and New Jersey came in second with 97,124 residents moving out.
Losing population puts states at risk of diluting their congressional representation.
According to the latest report from the Census Bureau, New Jersey and Connecticut will avoid that fate for one more ten-year cycle, but New York is among the ten states projected to lose a seat in Congress.
The next realignment will leave New York with 27 seats.
