Just one metric to report since the 2019 municipal Census estimates came out the other day. Here are the 1 year population changes for each of the cities proper identified by the O.P. I think that these are correct, but correct me if my 2018 Census estimate is incorrect.
Omaha: +9930*** (478,192) +4.2% since 2010 (adjusted for annexation per the Census website)
Jacksonville: +7618 (911,507) +10.9% since 2010
Richmond: +1653 (230,436) +12.8% since 2010
Salt Lake City: -24 (200,567) +7.6% since 2010
Louisville: -2480 (617,638) +3.7% since 2010
*** Omaha has been on an annexation tear. I don't know how much of this is due to annexation, but I did compare its growth to its county's growth, and the city "grew" more than twice raw number of Douglas County's growth between 2018 and 2019.
Of the group, Richmond's municipal growth rate is the most impressive to me since its city limits are significantly smaller than the others.

Those are wrong. There is zero chance Louisville is losing population. Zero. Read about all the development going on. We will see in 2021 I think.
Still not on Nashville's development level, but impressive.
Shakeesa….Louisville has this same level of development as Raleigh (at least in non tower proposals) but things are actually getting built. A few of these plans for Raleigh look like conceptual pipe dreams, and Louisville has a few of these conceptual pipe dreams as well.

That is what I figured. Louisville has a much better downtown and urban fabric. I want to see a few new towers in Louisville's skyline, but it looks like most the development is infill/rehab/low rise.
I'm going with Birmingham. It has already been seeing an amazing amount of new development and redevelopment within the urban core, and it is set to host the World Games in 2022 which will result in more exposure and hopefully economic investment.
I'll also add Greenville, SC. It will continue to receive rave reviews for its downtown, it will probably nag a few high-profile corporate relocations and expansions, and I think the construction of Unity Park will be another gamechanger.
