For decades, Americans streamed from North to South. No more.
If you moved from the Snow Belt to the Sun Belt during the last few years, you might be part of a vanishing breed.
During the 1970s, “historically hot” counties had the strongest population growth. Historically hot counties also had the strongest net migration, or the difference between people moving in and those moving out, not counting births and deaths. Those numbers reflect the well-known trend of Americans leaving cold northern areas for the balmy South, especially once air conditioning provided relief from miserable heat.
Yet the burden of climate change is becoming ever more tangible in the places most exposed to it—and the flight to safer ground might just be getting started. Scientists have been tracking signs of global warming for decades, but Americans as a whole are taking their time to recognize the risks it poses. In, slightly more than half of all US adults view climate change as a major threat, up from 40% in 2010.
