As many as one in five Americans want to leave the country with women driving the trend, poll finds

As many as one in five Americans say they want to leave the U.S., with young women driving the trend, a new survey has found.

Polling by Gallup shows that 40 percent of women aged 15 to 44 said they would like to leave the country and move abroad permanently if they could. The figure is four times greater than it was 10 years ago.
