I would love to answer but I don't know how big all the metros are. I do know that San Diego and L.A will rank pretty high as the top metros.

By city proper only:
01. New York City
02. Los Angeles
03. Chicago
04. Houston
05. Phoenix
06. Philadelphia
07. San Antonio
08. Dallas
09. San Diego
10. San Jose
11. Detroit
12. San Francisco
13. Jacksonville
14. Indianapolis (it will barely be above Austin, and sometime after the census comes out Austin will pass it)
15. Austin
16. Columbus (it will barely be above Fort Worth, shortly after the census figures Fort Worth will pass it up)
17. Fort Worth
18. Charlotte
19. Memphis
20. Boston
21. Baltimore
22. El Paso (Seattle will pass it up shortly after the census takes place)
23. Seattle
24. Denver
25. Nashville
26. Washington DC (it will already have passed Milwaukee up by that time)
27. Milwaukee (down from 26)
28. Louisville (when the figures come out it will have passed Las Vegas up)
29. Las Vegas (down from 28)
30. Oklahoma City (by the time it comes out, it will show Oklahoma City passing Portland up)
31. Portland (down from 30)
32. Atlanta (Figures will probably show it passed up Tucson)
33. Tucson (down from 32)
34. Albuquerque
35. Kansas City
36. Fresno
37. Sacramento
38. Mesa (will have passed Long Beach up)
39. Long Beach (down from 38)
40. Omaha
41. Miami (will surpass Virginia Beach)
42. Virginia Beach (down from 41)
43. Cleveland
44. Raleigh (will have passed Oakland by by then)
45. Oakland (down from 44)
46. Colorado Springs
47. Minneapolis (will have passed Tulsa up by then)
48. Tulsa (down from 47)
49. Arlington
50. Honolulu

I don't really see any surprises as far as cities go for the 2010 census, just a few minor switches here and there, that's all.

Good list but I think 9 and 8 will remain how they are now and not change to that at least I hope so.

Also, when will the census results be announced

I don't really see any surprises as far as cities go for the 2010 census, just a few minor switches here and there, that's all.
I could've said that I'd have San Diego at no. 8 at 1,360,000 and Dallas standing at around, I don't know, 1,320,000. And I was thinking of city proper, not metros.

The list for my 2010 predictions (large 15 cities)

1. New York City - 8,513,200
2. Los Angeles - 4,173,300
3. Chicago - 2,934,700
4. Houston - 2,391,800
5. Phoenix - 1,647,600
6. San Antonio - 1,501,400
7. Philadelphia - 1,472,900
8. San Diego - 1,382,700
9. Dallas - 1,329,100
10. San Jose - 1,045,000
11. Detroit - 906,200
12. San Francisco - 852,300
13. Jacksonville - 829,600
14. Indianapolis - 819,300
15. Austin - 794,300

I would have said San Antonio could stay at 7th, but Montclair18 said San Antonio is over Philly.

Oh shoot, I must have missed that. San Diego retook the number 8 position from Dallas again as of recent.

Honestly I wanted to say that 7-9 is a toss up, it can go anyway for those three cities, with San Antonio having a clear edge for 7. I think Dallas & San Diego will be the real surprise, San Diego if I remember clearly grew faster than Dallas so it should and seems like it is secured.

The census numbers will be out June 2011.

14. Indianapolis - 819,300
15. Austin - 794,300

Actually i think Philly will be right around 1.6 for 2010, it actually rebounded and grew during the second half of the decade but likely will not pass Pheonix on city proper

I like this metric better because it is more apples to apples on size, though this link is old 2000, there are 2008 figures which have similar rankings but didnt piece meal them

The census numbers will be out June 2011.

If you say San Diego was faster growing than Dallas, than why did you post that San Diego was a weeny bit smaller than Dallas? You should've agreed with my list .

San Diego : 1,375,000 (as 8th)
Dallas : 1,330,000 (as 9th)

But yes, they are both growing. True but how did you know that census numbers will be out it June 2011? Gimme a link. Can you edit your post to show your numbers?!?
