People are "fleeing" Connecticut because it is extremely expensive to live here. In most towns, you can't get a single family home for under $300,000. There are few condos compared to other states, and almost no zero trailers.
Once kids go away to college, they don't come back to the state.
Glad to see people are moving to other states besides California, Florida and Texas. Those three are getting too big.
