Where do new Atlantans come from?

And where do ex-Atlantans go?

Even though a certain enterprising local jerkfacejerk beat me to it by about 15 minutes, I’m still compelled to post this great map from Forbes.com showing 2008 migration to-and-from Atlanta.

The black lines represent migration to Atlanta. The red lines represent migration out. The thicker the line, the greater the number of people. New Atlantans come from all over. Ex-Atlantans are fond of D.C. New York, New Orleans, Portland, Seattle, Denver, Austin, Houston, and Dallas.
