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.

Oregon County sits in Missouri's remote Ozark Highlands, where low population density and a predominantly white, working-class demographic have produced some of the state's most lopsided Republican margins for over a decade.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 63.6 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 69.1 points in 2024. Between 2020 and 2024 the county moved 5.3 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 69.1 points.
A population of 8,673, a 93% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $43,069 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of St. Clair County and Reynolds County.
