An "out-of-state" move is one where someone moves to California from another state, or vice versa. Per-capita move rates use the county's population, as observed in our data, as the denominator. Cells with fewer than 3,000 movers are suppressed for reliability (the coefficient of variation is too high). California totals do not match Appendix Table 1 because we do not observe county for some observations.
