What about the Kingston and Newburgh-Poughkeepsie-Middletown metros? Also, what about micropolitan areas? I know that the Watertown and Plattsburgh areas have grown.

The results of last year's population count show that Orange County grew 9.2 percent from 2000 to 2010, reaching 372,813. That growth rate ranked second among New York's 62 counties, trailing slightly behind Saratoga County's 9.5 percent.

Hi bellafinzi,
The fact that you put this together is great, but your number for Ithaca's MSA is incorrect. The population in 2000 was 96,501. The number you have was an estimate from 2004.

No surprises here. Would have though Ithaca would have grown by a little more than it did; but other than that pretty much what I would have expected.
Buffalo....what's the deal? Seems like they keep shrinking by really large margins while Rochester, only an hour away, manages to show some growth.

I'm surprised too. I thought that Niagara County gained some people, as some towns showed gains. |
