When You Schedule a Local Move in Latham
When you plan a local move in Latham, the figures you weigh most are hourly. Moves under 100 miles here generally bill for a crew and truck by the hour, so a faster move costs less than a slow one. Collected cost data puts the total for such local moves between $495 and $4,334.
Hourly pricing means your final cost tracks how long the crew is on site; a simple one-bedroom move may wrap up faster than a four-bedroom job with extra volume and weight. Per-hour labor rates start around $45 and run past $80 for a single mover. Expect $150 to $300+ per hour combined for a two-to-three-person crew. If you only need help loading or unloading a truck or container, a two-person team typically charges $85 to $110 per hour.

Latham refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country only partly replaces them.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $80,019 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in New York report $60,970. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.
How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Albany County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 24% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
