incomers
Those moving in
Incomers are people who arrive in a place where they weren't before, especially newcomers who settle in an established community.
The term carries a hint of outsider status and is used particularly in British English, often by longtime residents referring to recent arrivals in rural areas or small towns.
The village pub had become popular with incomers from London.
The word can be neutral or slightly unwelcoming depending on tone.
