philadelphia reversed its population decline so recently, it's hard to see what kind of growth is really occurring. in reality, philadelphia is likely growing faster than los angeles at this time. practically every single remaining vacant lot is now being developed. even those small open air parking lots downtown are slated 4 development. philadelphia it has recently gotten automated garages, a clear sign that development and density are of the highest priority and a recognition that accommodating cars (coming in from the suburbs) remains an important aspect of maintaining that urban density, but that storing those cars should be done in as little space and as efficiently as possible.
what I really see in this list is that nothing can stop the east coast megalopolis.
If they join up they want make Georgia grow faster just GA metros will be a little larger, Both GA and NC are fast growing states and know no one the future, earlier last GA was growing faster, what if 2022 role round and were like NC was growing faster earlier last decade. But whatever happen I doubt either would grow much larger than other.
The two states are probably going to grow in parallel for the next decade and will likely be similar in population in 2020 like they are today.

GA and NC are definitely similar in population and economy for that matter. One doesn't really outshine the other. But I feel NC will edge out GA in the next few decades.

LOL at what? If it aint Boston you just seem to dismiss everything
Also in terms of Boston projections for 2050, why so little growth?
Regional Population Projections...
New York City - Northern / Central NJ , Southeastern CT , LoHud Valley
2000 : 20.6 Million > 2010 : 22.08 Million > 2050 : 35 Million
Washington-Baltimore-Northern Virginia
2000 : 7.5 Million > 2010 : 8.9 Million > 2050 : 15 Million
Boston - Worcester - Manchester - Providence
2000 : 7.2 Million > 2010 : 7.5 Million > 2050 : 9 Million
Philadelphia–Camden–Wilmington-Reading
2000 : 6.2 Million > 2010 : 6.7 Million > 2050 : 14 Million
The City of Los Angles grew by 2.6% While Philadephia grew by 0.6% and if my math is correct 2.6%>0.6% and tose Numbers are wrong as of 2010 Pilllys CSA as has 6.53 Million, not 6.7 and Bostons has 7.56 Million
because Census estimates are soo accurate, that same system over counted Atlanta by 130,000, unless that many people left between 09' and 10'.
well a one year estimate from 2010 to 2011 is much more accurate, also the census was far more accurate among slower growing places (of which LA and Philly fit this bill)
But yes Btown Philly is growing, center city added 20K residents over the last ten years alone (based on the census, not estimates) and there are 5K units under construction as we speak in CC
It isnt growing much faster than LA, but it is and definately some "LOL" pawn off like what drew my initial response was much misplaced...

Doesn't that seem like an awfully generous estimate for Philadelphia?
