I'm would be surprised about Phoenix and Gilbert but after visiting Arizona recently I can see why people would want to live there. Houston on the other hand...
I guess some people get things quicker than others, don't worry, it will come to you eventually
In the case of South Florida, there are just so many different independent municipalities to have any one of them add 100K+. for Miami to add 73,000 is pretty impressive given that its city limits are only about 35 square miles of land.
Even among the top 13, some of these municipalities are huge in land area while others are part of metros that have a multitude of municipalities sharing the growth.
nobody says anything to you and you go out of your way to **** on ny.
nobody can even compliment ny before you show up like the batman logo went off in the sky or something.
chill with that. stop trying to find ways to discredit ny. stop throwing rocks at the throne.
Nope, didn't go out of my way to **** on NY.
My first comment in the thread was not about NY.
I used NY as an example which in no way put it in a bad light.
Yep, I can see where you thought I was trying to discredit NY.
Now lets examine your first post in the thread.

It seems your sole purpose on CD is to make sure no one says anything bad about NYC and even though not one post in the thread had been negative about NY, you felt the need to come in the thread like a dog pissing on a tree.

Okay first you have the notion that I don't like Los Angeles. I love Los Angeles, it is one of my top 8 favorite cities and I am a very picky person. For me to like a place, it has to meet my needs.
I defend Los Angeles a lot on these boards.
But who am I kidding, I am not going to go out there and lie about something that is obvious.
The facts:
Los Angeles lost population in 2006 from what it had in 2005, that it regained back in 2007.
Los Angeles has a freakin unemployment rate of 12.5% that is the unhealthiest rate for any metro of its size (top 10 largest). Its only behind Detroit, Las Vegas, & Sacramento on that.
Do you honestly believe that the city will keep on growing till the eye can see with such astronomical growth rates for a city of its size? No it wont, and with that kind of economy, you bet there will be a larger net loss than net gain. Births & immigration is keeping Los Angeles in the positives, but what will happen when immigrants start finding alternative locations to head on to where they can find employment faster?
NYC is the number one city in the country. therefore it "sits on the throne."
*shrugs*
who says differently..?
No city in the Great US Of A will ever match NYC....but Metro LA will over take it one day....You Caught Me Smiling Again....
