Moving is hard. Trust me, I know. Whether you’re packing up and moving cross country or starting a new lease down the street, the task of moving presents a lot of opportunities- and challenges. Few things are more daunting than having to pack up, and unpack your entire place in a mere couple of days. While the task is intimidating and less than what I would call glamorous, Instagramming your move is becoming the new thing to do. It may seem ultimate millennial move- why would you want to document the day you carried boxes up five flights of stairs?
Sharing your move via social media allows you to fill your followers in on the next chapter of your life. By posting a #movingday photo op, you’re allowing your friends and family to share in the excitement that comes along with taking on a new space. Wondering what city has the most #moving posts? This study dives into the cities where people are most likely to post about their move, and the top 5 most shared moving locations in the cities. It’s no surprise that out of the top 10 locations, half are located in the sunshine state.
