Illinois has sadly become famous for people leaving over the past few years, but there's one place in the state that everyone appears to be moving to for some crazy reason.

There's an interesting new ranking of the top cities in each state that people are moving to from Move Buddha and the #1 pick for Illinois surprised me and might surprise you, too.

If you had to guess, would you have imagined that Champaign would have a sky-high move-in rate which is much greater than the move-out rate?

If you think about it, there are lots of good reasons why Champaign is a potentially good destination. The fact that you have the University of Illinois nearby and it's centrally-located in the state which makes it reasonably close to many potential activities. You're not far from Chicago, St. Louis and Indianapolis. Perhaps it's not crazy that it's the Illinois place people are moving to after all.
