In a nutshell, any counties that have new cases per 100,000 per day of 1 or less than 1 are "green" ... and that is the level at which it is probably safe to reopen schools (and other things... and have a kind of normal life).   New cases per 100,000 per day of between 1 and 9 are "yellow".   States need to pay careful attention to yellow counties through lots of testing and contact tracing.  If you read about countries in Europe talking about "new outbreaks" and "second waves" ... they are talking about green areas turning yellow, usually.

If you don't watch out, yellow counties quickly turn into orange counties and honestly, stay at home orders would be needed for orange counties.  Orange means 10- 24 new cases per 100,000 per day.   After that is red -- which as you can see is most of our south.

I wouldn't move to any state that had any orange counties at this point.  With all we know about COVID spread, having an orange county (if it isn't already under a "stay at home" order) is a sign of failed public health.    They aren't going to be safely able to open schools.  They might TRY to open schools but it isn't going to work for long.  And businesses are going to take longer to recover as well.  These states are making short term decisions for the economy, instead of thinking for the long term economy.
