One in four Massachusetts residents report that they would move if they could.
"The cost of housing seems to be felt most keenly by newcomers to Massachusetts, those who arrived here within the past decade. The newcomers, a group the poll found to be highly educated and diverse both racially and ethnically, were more prone to want to leave Massachusetts than the general population. About one-third of the group said they would leave if given the opportunity, most citing the cost of living or taxes as the driving factor. Sixty-nine percent of the newcomers said housing affordability is an area in need of major improvement by policymakers."
