How many people move from Saint George to Lubbock
The Census Bureau's American Community Survey (2016–2020) sampled nobody moving from Washington County, UT to Lubbock County, TX, or between their metro areas, so it publishes no estimate for this pair; people leaving Washington County mostly go to the counties listed below. The reverse trip does register: about 123 people a year (±255). The margin of error is as large as the estimate, so read it as a handful of households rather than a count.
At state level, the 2024 survey counts about 8,688 people a year (±3,343) moving from Utah to Texas and about 6,509 people a year (±2,113) from Texas to Utah — a net gain for Texas of about 2,179 people a year.
