| Net Domestic Migration in Thousands (July 1 previous year to June 30) | ||||
| 2016 | 2015 | 2014 | 2013 | |
| San Jose | -20.8 | -10.1 | -7.2 | -1.4 |
| San Francisco | -12 | 0.1 | -0.3 | 2.4 |
| Oakland | -1.1 | 8.8 | 14.1 | 13 |
| Sacramento | 12.3 | 9.1 | 8.2 | 3.3 |
| Stockton | 4.2 | 3.7 | 3.8 | -3.9 |
Unfortunately, we don't have any data yet for 2016 on how the net domestic migration change breaks down between in-migration versus out-migration.
My guess is that more of the 2016 change for the Bay Area results from a slow-down to in-migration due to slower job growth and high cost of living. If the net change were mostly due to an increase in out-migration, then I expect we would have seen a larger increase to net migration for Stockton and Sacramento. Between 2013 and 2015, we saw a smaller decrease in Bay Area domestic migration and a larger increase to Stockton/Sacramento domestic migration.
