Not defending either of these cities, but much of these types of lists are due to suburb growth, bot really people leaving the areas.

All the songs written that mention Shreveport, are about leaving. Even the saying "Elvis has left the building" is about Elvis leaving the Louisiana Hayride, which was in Shreveport. We should give it back to Texas.

Would BR's numbers be down because St. George pulled out of the city's numbers?

I'm so glad I don't live in any city right now. As Merle Haggard sang, "I'm tired of this dirty old city".
We are planning to do a huge multi family move in about 2 years.

Shouldn’t Baton Rouge numbers be going up due to annexing all those neighborhoods that didn’t want to be part of St George?

Why? There’s nothing here to make people stay.

BR is a shithole, if you like to hunt and fish Shreveport is awesome, quick drive to Dallas, not bad really if you have money.

I'd rather live in BR than Shreveport by a fairly wide margin

K guess you're not an outdoorsman, at least we have a skyline.

This topic has been brought up before, specifically with the Alabama cities, and people were shite on for suggesting that bland, midsize cities in California and Texas were gobbling up the people that were financially able to relocate.

Fine with me. Less traffic
Those leaving BR aren't going very far, so we'll still have God-awful traffic.
