Households arriving from another state report $100,906 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Pennsylvania report $95,274. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Delaware County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 17% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

How much truck space do you need?

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
