Now it gained those folks back in the following year (again, you'd know if you'd actually open the article in the original post) but who knows how it's going to fair in the future. Currently looks to be trending downward, unfortunately.

I think he was going by the official census numbers, not estimates.

Of course population fluctuates during the 10 year span between every census...... but those numbers are considered to be estimated not confirmed.... When the results are actually counted its always a plus.

Now we are at 1.4 million which is more than its ever been.

Metro Population is what's important...not City population....Look at Atlanta...498,044 in (2018)...And look at Arlington Tx.(a suburb in DFW)398,112 (2018)..not to far off.

"Metro Population is what's important...not City population"



Important in terms of WHAT?? If you mean in determining the number of people in a given area (and it's continuous growth) you're right. After all, people are moving there for a reason. Outside of that, what makes it "Important"? The city population itself tends to be just as telling a story, since the city had to have gotten so big for some reason in the first place. And if no one's moving from said city (and is actually ADDING population annually) then it says that there has to be a good reason for them to stay there.
