It simply means two things. One work from home now allows people to live anywhere rather than being tied to a physical location and says nothing about politics. Two you won’t let an opportunity pass to kick the place that provided you everything you’ve got on the way out.
BTW, when you look at rents in previously unlovable places with little rent demand and small populations a small increase in demand can have an outsized impacts on the stats.
Rent going from $500 to $600 is 20%. Rent going from $3000 to $3500 is less than 20% but a case isn’t hard to make its a hotter better rental market
And SD / Orange County population dwarves the combined population of Utah, Idaho and Montana combined
