Greater Miami declined by more than 34,000 residents. Residents moving away from the metro area (priced out by residents moving here from NY and CA) were more than double the substantial growth in new residents arriving from abroad which constitutes a significant number for Miami Dade.
This makes sense as fewer international people visited, let alone moved, to Miami (and the US) during Covid--Federal Government restrictions preventing fully vaccinated foreigners from visiting the US were not lifted until November last year (see link below). Should see an increase in 2022, particularly as more South American governments tilt leftist. Deaths accounted for about 5% of the population loss.
The Seattle area and Washington have been growing in Black population too!
Seattle's black population may have grown between 2010 and 2020 but its a blip in terms of total AAs there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...an_populations
Houston and DFW Black populations are each over 5x as large.
What's surprising is that metro Denver has 700K more residents than Metro Austin but but only 7K more African Americans. Denver has 374K more residents than San Antonio but 7k fewer African Americans.

Tbh, I'm not buying into many of these estimates 1 bit. Numbers are just gonna be so skewed until we completely move past the pandemic. I expect mid-decade and towards the end of it, for the numbers to lie a bit closer to actuality/reality on the ground.

Honestly, its probably as good as its going to get though the margin of error may be higher. The census was more than likely an undercount. This may be too, but I think its relatively close.
Seeing on socials how "everyone" is moving to Miami, yet the county lost 30K people is pretty hilarious. But this is also not surprising, as every major city in almost every country saw people move out in droves during covid. I'm sure it'll bounce back in 2022.

Raw population numbers don't only include movement, but deaths vs births. A lot of people died in the last two years.
Are we ever getting official 2020 census counts per ethnicity like Chinese or Japanese etc. it’s vital info that still hasn’t come to light and now we have moved on to “estimates” which are fairly useless. Any insight or idea?

All youre going to get is the ACS. The Census said, due to Covid, they wouldnt be releasing it.
The estimates are not useless. They do have a margin of error that the Census normally doesnt have, but this year the undercounting in the Census was widely documented so this is actually probably better.
