[quote=desmond]FormerSD, From your link it says total moves, in or out, for each city, so 5000 is not the minimum for people moving in. Still a meaningless example. btw, I cannot see how people moving in using a U-haul is something to brag about, that is one step above the Beverly Hillbillies moving firm.[/quote]

I have not formed an opinon nor expressed an opinion on these data in this thread that the Uhaul numbers are an indicator to brag about.

I also have not written anything in this thread (so far) that says these are an indication of strength or weakness in the housing or rental markets.

I am simply trying to point to and examine examples and data that people used previously to indicate that people were moving out of San Diego. I agree that these statistics and examples are as meaningless now as they were in 2005-2006. But, in retrospect they were consistent with observations and other data that followed back then.
