SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) -- People are leaving San Francisco.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, in fact, people have been leaving metro areas in general in favor of larger properties in which to work from home. But San Francisco has topped the list for largest net outflow of homebuyers, along with other expensive coastal cities, according to data from real estate brokerage Redfin.
Data shows that in January, a total of 30,200 people looking to leave San Francisco. This is down from January 2022, which saw 41,500 homebuyers looking to leave.
Where are all of these San Franciscans going? A large majority of them are moving east to Sacramento or north to Seattle, according to Redfin data.

But many are also flocking to coastal Florida, potentially due to larger, cheaper real estate, a warmer climate and lower taxes. The most popular destination is Miami, according to Redfin data.
The southern Florida city saw a net influx of 7,200 homebuyers in January. This is also down from January 2022, which saw 11,400 homebuyers looking to move. Most of the migrants were looking from New York, according to Redfin data.
“A lot of buyers have flocked into coastal Florida from out of town over the last several months,” said Elena Fleck, a Redfin agent in the Miami metro area, in the study. “Buyers moving in from places like New York and San Francisco are helping the local market recover from last fall’s housing downturn."
