Just exactly how do you know what I think? I asked you a question because I was curious why you would state what you did.

The source of these estimates hadn't been mentioned anywhere in this thread when you posted.

Yes.

Baltimore Metropolitan Area (MSA) Population on August 4th, 2010: 2,704,148
Baltimore Metropolitan Area (MSA) Population on November 15th, 2010: 2,707,583
Difference: 3,435 New People in 3 months and 11 days

Baltimore's increase rate is actually moderate for its size, and its actually seeing things speed up from the previous year too.

The DC area seems to be the fastest growing area (percentage wise) outside the sunbelt. Go us.

I'm not surprised to see Texas is still growing. There's more job stability and affordability there. Along with of course the warm weather that continues to draw folks south.

I wonder about other parts of the sunbelt that are still reeling from the housing crash like Florida and Arizona though. I wonder what it means that they're still growing?

Dude for Miami they are good.

Last year Miami's MSA actually lost population by 1,291 people for the year. This year is by far and away a lot better for Miami.

Both of my cities, Oklahoma City and Denver, I'm pretty sure fit into the "Fast" category.

It's great for Miami and the metro area
I know the city's economy isn't in good shape yet, but many economists expect a very strong recovery in 2012
