Using J2J Explorer from the US Census, we are able to see not only where jobs are moving to and from, but also the educational requirements of these jobs. When looking at Q3 of 2023, we can see that more jobs are entering Colorado than leaving for each educational level.

Here, we can see the total net flow of jobs to/from Colorado by education and state. The red line at y = 0 represents no flow, or equal job flows in and out of Colorado and the corresponding state
This work showed that J2J trends are broadly similar by education level in the state of Colorado. Texas and California are the two states it exchanges jobs with most in all educational levels. There are few states that recieve more jobs from Colorado than they send to the state, but the top states with the highest net gain from Colorado include Washington (for jobs requiring less than a college degree) and South Carolina (for jobs requiring a college degree).
