\u201cThere are two main determining factors whether people move or not,\u201d says Nathalie Williams, a sociology professor from the University of Washington. \u201cThe better people feel their lives are going, the less likely they are to move elsewhere.\u201d Economic insecurity can also prompt residents to stay put too, Williams says.<\/p>\n

They found the following eight cities have the fewest people on the move (listed<\/a> with the percentage of people who moved into their homes before 1990):<\/p>\n

  1. Detroit: 21.4%<\/li>\n
