As has been stated many times; really will it matter will anyone care.
I mean really an arbitrary boundary more than twice the size. Its like adding the scores of two basketball games together and saying look we scored more points when you played the first one and lost by 50 points and in the second there was no opposing team.
Honestly to me I think it would be interesting to figure out what the inner loop population will be.

Same here. As I believe that is the urban part of Houston and majority outside of the loop is pretty much suburbia. I've seen it as low as 469,000 but as high as 580,000. We won't know until next year and it could get a big bump if Houston wins the challenge. Apparently, the challenge will focus on a good portion of the inner loop. BTW, if it is at 580,000, welcome the inner loop into the 6000 ppsm range. It's improving.
What are the official 2010 stats? I think Chicago actually is quite a significant distance ahead of Houston.
CHi is up by almost 600K if Houston loses its challenge. But Chicago can't afford to lose 200k a decade like in the 2010 census and 1990 census and almost 400k in the 198 census.

I think Houston wins the challenge, their a lot of evidence that says some of the census workers just took a look at the neighborhood and walked away.
I don't no where they are from, but id imagine an outsider to the loop...northeast, east, and south Houston (inside the loop) could be pretty scary. They aren't exactly the safest neighborhoods...but people live there. Some people live here 20-30 years before realizing neighborhoods like southpark, denver harbor, and the wards exist.

Pretty sure chicagos bad neighborhoods are "scarier" then those.

We had a lot of miscount too.
Then the city should challenge it if they think so. Looks like Chicago leaders aren't, so they must believe the numbers are accurate. For Houston, entire apartment complexes were missed and the Census said no one lived on those tracts of land, which obviously people did.
