A racoon will move to different locations for one of two reasons.
1. Food (self explanatory)
2. Territory (Racoons are "clannish", meaning they stick together in family clans. If one clan encounters another in it's territory, the weaker of the two clans will be forced to find a new territory to inhabit.)

They become accustomed to obtaining food from humans and do not use their own foraging skills. In some jurisdictions it is against the law to feed wildlife.
