Sure is. It’s gaining momentum with transplants. And oddly enough, many more people are choosing to retire there.
Besides retirees.
I'm talking about relatively young people moving there and starting careers. As far as population growth, Maine isn't even in the top 10 or top 15. It's middle of the pack.
Perhaps you'd first like to tell us how a state with a population density of ~36.8people/sq mile is remotely comparable to a city with a population density of~2,134people/sq mile?
How is that an excuse? The streetcar suburb that I live in has over 5,000 people per square mile, and I don't think that there's ever been a homicide here.

Not as simple as you think. Memphis,TN, DeSoto,TX, and Cedar Hill,TX. All are predominantly Black. The latter two have low crime rate, and low murder rates, while Memphis has a high murder rate. A large portion of Memphis' Black population is part of the underclass, where a large number of murders take place. DeSoto and Cedar Hill are middle class suburban areas outside of Dallas. Middle class, working Black people aren't where the murders are coming from.
It's simple. Memphis is a crap hole. Also look at the demographics. Memphis is full of blacks. I know people will be up in arms about what I just said. However it is the truth. Blacks make up 13% of the population but make up over 50% of the homicides in this country. Maine is almost 95% white. Memphis is 65% black. Look it up if you don't believe me.
Yah, they should be up in arms about that. That is a racist comment.

Yeah, well the truth is racist.
Just yesterday I read a news article that said white people are less likely to wear masks. The comments section said “that’s racist!” but we all know it is true.
Everything is about race and skin tone nowadays because of a few loud people devoid of value.
And this is the conversation I was striving for. There are many nuances and factors that need to be known.
