Migration is one input to a place’s political change, not its cause — a shift can also come from residents changing their minds, generational turnover, or turnout. These figures describe the places people moved between; they do not measure how any mover voted.

Greenup County sits along the Ohio River in Kentucky's historically Democratic coalfields region, yet by 2024 it swung to a 50-point Republican presidential margin — a realignment that tracks closely with the broader collapse of Democratic support across Appalachian Kentucky.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 24.5 points in 1964 and a Republican high of 50.5 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 5.5 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 50.5 points.
A population of 35,501, a 95% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $60,751 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Carter County and Wayne County.
