Baldwin County being in the separate Daphne-Fairhope-Foley Metro Area is the key problem for Mobile. If the two areas are combined, they would have a one-year gain of over 5,000 in 2022.

Something clicked and I remembered that one year I called the CB and they said there was no reason I shouldn’t be able to see the numbers. They asked me to clear my browser history on Chrome and voila. I cleared it just now and voila. I’m not sure if that did it or if the numbers got posted while I was clearing browser data. Anyway, if anyone’s still unable to see the numbers, you might try clearing browser data. But also, hunt and peck until you find the route to the numbers because the tables aren’t in your face for sure.

Holy crap! Medford, MA was the 15th fastest growing city in the entire US for 2021-2022? That can't be true.

Yea Mobile desperately needs 2 things to happen; Baldwin County to join the metro and successfully annex the 26,000 residents that will be voting to join the city within the next month or 2

As the 540 loop starts encircling Southern Wake county, those Raleigh suburbs are hitting their boom stretch just as Western Wake (Cary and Apex) did earlier. Fuquay-Varina is the big winner, growing 20% since the 2020 census. On the far eastern stretches of the county, Wendell and Zebulon grew over 25%, albeit still fairly small towns.

San Antonio +36k in 2021, +50k in 2022.

Austin +58k in 2021, +63k for 2022.

Very interesting.

Pittsburgh grew 2020-2021 and declined 2021-2022? Weird.

These estimates are all over the map. It's almost like they're prone to high error rates.

Interesting trend I'm noticing in the city estimates: The "inner-ring suburbs losing population" thing is not limited to the most expensive metros.

Population change in major inner-ring suburbs (just checking the first ones I think of), 2021-22

Denver
Aurora 0.81%
Centennial -1.37%
Edgewater -1.13%
Englewood -0.02%
Lakewood -0.63%
Littleton -1.12%

Minneapolis-St. Paul
Bloomington -1.83%
Brooklyn Center -2.09%
Brooklyn Park -1.35%
Edina -1.69%
Falcon Heights 4.21%
Richfield 0.50%
West St. Paul 4.41%

Portland
Beaverton -1.44%
Gresham -1.35%
Lake Oswego -1.08%
Maywood Park -1.34%
Milwaukie 1.62%
Troutdale -1.79%
Vancouver WA 0.91%

It's looking more and more like a cultural shift away from big cities (or maybe from blue states perceived as soft on crime), vs. just a cost thing.

There's been very little new construction of homes in Medford in the last 3 years compared to those other cities. I wonder where all those new residents are living and whether the 5/1s they've been building elsewhere are all just sitting empty?

Also I guess Northampton is booming?
Unless they’re triple counting Tufts students in Medford there’s no way. Seriously has to be a correction or methodology issue.
