Tips for a Derby Move
- Proximity to US-85, I-270 and industrial corridors brings traffic and narrow parking that can stall trucks for 30 minutes; reserve space or clear the driveway.
- Keep chargers, IDs, medications, toiletries, tools and toilet paper in your vehicle as an open-first kit.
- Avoid $15–$25 wardrobe boxes; hang clothes and cover with large trash bags from the bottom tied at hooks.
- Have $20–$40 cash per mover ready and supply water or Gatorade to speed the work.

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 Adams County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 19% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
