What the figure measures

Tabulation of current state of residence crossed by state of residence 1 year ago. This is a 1-year mobility / previous-residence statistic, not a count of household-goods shipments.

Universe: population 1 year and over. Dataset: State-to-State Migration Flows: 2024 American Community Survey 1-Year Estimates (Table T13). Official release: Jan 21, 2026. Last checked: Sep 7, 2026. Status: LATEST AVAILABLE. Margins of error in these tables are Census Bureau 90% margins of error.

Regional (250–750 centroid miles)

Connecticut is the 9th largest of 38 outbound destinations recorded for Maine — 2.4% of the 28,146 people who left Maine for another state.

Maine is the 24th largest of 43 inbound origins recorded for Connecticut — 0.8% of the 82,686 people who arrived in Connecticut from another state.

Nationally, this is the 1363rd largest of 2,096 state-to-state flows that carry an estimate, a margin of error, and a reverse estimate in the 2024 table.

The 90% margin of error is 71.4% of the estimate: the Census interval runs from 192 to 1,150. Treat any single-year comparison inside that band as noise.

Connecticut → Maine exceeds Maine → Connecticut by 548 (1.82× the other direction), but that difference sits inside its own 90% margin of error (± 799). At 90% confidence the table does not establish a net direction for this pair.

Maine and Connecticut do not share a land border. 311 state-centroid straight-line miles; IMMERVEIL planning band: Regional (250–750 centroid miles). Not driving miles.

Derivations: ranks are competition ranks among cells that carry an estimate (ties share a rank); shares divide the pair estimate by the state’s ACS total; the difference test uses √(MOE₁² + MOE₂²) per Census Bureau statistical-testing guidance; the distance band is an IMMERVEIL planning label on centroid miles, not a tariff zone. Corridor context module v1.0.

Distance note

311 miles is the state-centroid straight-line distance between TIGER-derived geographic centroids of Maine and Connecticut. It is not driving mileage, not a highway recommendation, and not a shipping zone. Driving or route miles require a city-to-city pair and a licensed routing provider — this page does not invent that figure. State centroids are computed with d3.geoCentroid on TIGER-derived polygons. Distances shown on state-to-state pages are state-centroid straight-line distances. They are not driving miles, not a highway recommendation, and not a shipping zone. Driving distance requires a city pair and a routing provider.

Planning checklist

  • Confirm whether the shipment is interstate (subject to federal household-goods rules) or intrastate.
  • Look up the mover’s USDOT before paying a deposit. Open Mover Check.
  • Read the estimate type. Open Quote Check.
  • Storage between pickup and delivery is common on long corridors — treat unit size as a range. Storage calculator.

Questions this page answers

How many people moved from Maine to Connecticut according to the Census?
The latest official figure is the ACS 2024 1-year estimate of people living in Connecticut whose residence one year earlier was Maine: 671 ± 479 (90% margin of error). It is a previous-residence statistic, not a count of household-goods shipments, trucks, or permanent relocations.
Do more people move from Maine to Connecticut, or the other way?
Connecticut to Maine is nominally larger (671 versus 1,219), but the difference of 548 is inside its own 90% margin of error (± 799). The table does not establish a net direction for this pair.
How important is Connecticut as a destination for people leaving Maine?
In ACS 2024, Connecticut ranks 9th of 38 recorded destinations for people whose residence one year earlier was Maine, taking 2.4% of that state's out-of-state movers. Ranks are competition ranks among cells with an estimate; ties share a rank.
Is the Maine–Connecticut mileage on this page a driving distance?
No. 311 miles is the state-centroid straight-line (great-circle) distance between TIGER-derived geographic centroids. It is not driving miles, not a highway recommendation, and not a shipping zone.
Is 2024 still the latest official state-to-state migration table?
Yes. The Census Bureau released 2024 State-to-State Migration Flows on 2026-01-21. No 2025 ACS state-to-state table is published. Calendar year is not the dataset year.
How should I check a mover for a Maine to Connecticut shipment?
Use the USDOT printed on the written estimate. Look the number up in Mover Check (live FMCSA MCMIS census) and confirm the record on FMCSA SAFER before paying a deposit. IMMERVEIL does not rank, score, or endorse carriers.
How much does it cost to move from Maine to Connecticut?
IMMERVEIL does not invent a mover price, fuel, or toll bracket. ACS Table T13 and the FMCSA census do not contain those figures. Quote Check performs arithmetic on the amount printed on your estimate — including the 110% collect-on-delivery figure for a qualifying interstate non-binding estimate.
