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.

Pulaski County's political identity is shaped by its large active-duty and veteran population surrounding Fort Leonard Wood, contributing to presidential margins exceeding 50 points in recent cycles despite the transient nature of military-community demographics.

A population of 53,894, a 69% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $64,466 describe the county. The county's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Onslow County and Coryell County.
