There's no way to know what city is growing the fastest in the year 2011.. Nobody said the HQ came back to Augusta, I said the company came back and invested into the local community... They were discussed moving the development center to Charlotte also...

There's no way to know what city is growing the fastest in the year 2011.
I'm speaking of the most recent population growth figures, and the growth over the last decade as a more long-term indicator of growth. Augusta falls on the lower end of the scale in that category.

The company still maintained a presence in the area although the HQ were relocating. They just moved the customer service center, so there really was no "coming back."
