Metros where most growth is outside state that Central City is in
For those metros that take up multiple states, especally where rivers serve as the borders, how many can you name where the "other side", the side not containing the main city, is outgrowing the dominant side? Can be either in actual numbers or percent
Two that come to mind are Memphis and Cincinnati.
2000 to 2010 population change
Memphis +110,896
TN +53,000 +0%
MS + 57,000 +38%
AR + 1,000 0%
Cincinnati +120,519
OH +69,519 + 4%
KY + 45,000 +14%
IN + 6,000 +7%
What others can you think of?

The Kansas suburbs of Kansas City are growing at a much faster rate than their cousins on the Missouri side.

Memphis was my first thought. Columbus GA maybe, Charlotte somewhat, Chattanooga spills into AL and GA, New Orleans is starting to creep into MS

An important note on Louisville 2000 to 2010 population growth... the Census eliminated one county (Scott Co IN). If you either don't count SC in 00 or do count it in 10 you would get the following for THE Ville
Louisville + 145,672
KY side +121,000; + 13% 
IN side + 24,641, +10%
