Just curious as to what is driving the Kent, WA growth.




Being priced out of Seattle housing and it's not very far to Seattle if you have to commute. Although I would loathe that drive.

You can consider Murfreesboro a suburb of Nashville. It’s about 30 minutes away from Nashville. It is exploding right now.

High taxes, high cost of living in Seattle.

Thought everyone was leaving Nola
Most of the O-T avoids New Orleans so this forum isnt the best indicator of what's going on in the city. Also, the vast majority of Nola's growth was between 2010-2016. It's been kind of stagnant recently.

From the article:

Good food, jobs, and awesome things to do make New Orleans a great place to call home as its growth rate will attest.


Nola's shitty job market is the #1 reason for it's stagnant population.

Check the census numbers in 2000 pre Katrina. The 2010 numbers were low because of the storm.

Unfortunately I live in Frisco. We don’t need anymore frickers moving here.

They just added a lane to the DNT and it did nothing to help traffic.

The fact that Nashville isn’t on this list is laughable


Looks like Nashville grew 10.3% during that period.

Suburbs with tons of empty land will dominate these lists, since it’s on a % basis

wish people would quit moving to Nola. Driving down magazine, st. Charles and Tchop is becoming unbearable


It's still not up to pre Katrina numbers.

And it never will be because no one will ever move back out to the East.

Instead they are piling into Midcity, Bywater, Treme, Uptown, etc. everything is busting at the seems, except the East.

The latest U.S. Census Bureau estimates indicate the population in Orleans Parish was flat in July 2017 compared with the year prior. In addition, the flow of residents returning post-Katrina appears to be slowing. For a second consecutive year, movers-out outpaced those estimated to be moving into the city from other parts of the state and country. The New Orleans metro area, which covers New Orleans and the surrounding eight-parish region, gained 4,500 people from 2016 to 2017, an increase of less than 1 percent, according to the estimates.


New Orleans growth stopped in 2016
