A 3 to 4-bedroom home runs $1,606 to $2,804 over 7 to 9 hours, and a 5-plus bedroom home runs $2,731 to $4,202 or more, taking 10-plus hours. If you just need loading help, labor-only rates average around $84 per hour. Moves over 100 miles are priced by weight and mileage, typically $1,395 to $7,900 or more.

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 Walworth County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 32% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
