The Carolinas are exploding
I’ve been trying to convince my wife that it’s not worth living in Charleston anymore. It has sucked here for years, but she’s from the DMV area and still thinks this place is great. She doesn’t get it.
I always hoped we’d eventually retreat back to North Augusta, Aiken, or Yemassee after a few years, but sadly the writing is even on the wall for those places when it comes to outsiders and over-development.
SC will be a lost cause within the next decade.

What the hell is going on in South Carolina? Plus 79%. Must be the promises land.

US population is no longer growing so we’ll increasingly see cities become have and have nots. Cities that have had flat growth will shrink and cities that were losing will lose population faster.
US birthrate is and has been under replacement for years. Birthrate is still higher than death rate. That will change in about 5 years, in which case you would then only become partially correct as net immigration will continue to push us in a positive population direction for a while.

This is my shocked face. If you move here, vote better.

People from the Midwest are positively OBSESSED with South Carolina. Especially Ohio.

Unfortunately, many will now vote for the policies that made them want to leave their old home in their new home not realizing the problem.

Thought NYC should be on there but maybe they don't use PODS, but professional movers.

South Florida because pythons are becoming a city problem.

But cities that have been booming for decades may grow much slower, if at all. Things are going to be very different very soon absent any reversal to allow significant immigration.
No thanks, I’ll enjoy the forthcoming peace and quiet and have the robots take care of the menial and manual labor.

It's going to look different and cities that have a history of growth may no longer grow and people are going to be surprised. In a couple of decades it's going to be much more apparent with only a handful of cities still growing.

A lot of American wealth is tied up in home equity. If and when home prices start falling and/or rising very slowly, it's going to impact a lot of people. Especially homeowners in suburbs. It's going to be a big deal in our way of life.
The boomer generation is the last home-grown generation with lots of people. The reason that millennials are a large generation is due to massive immigration decades ago. Gen X is smallish and Gen Z even smaller.
We've never lived in a country that wasn't growing fast, but we all will very soon. Our acculturation of wealth has been dependent on that growth but that's going away. And not just way in the future, it's very close.

I was vibbing with you UNTIL...... you wanna bring in more immigrants. I'm supposing you wanna bring in more hispanics and muslims, am I wrong?

Good amount of liberals are leaving.
And I ain’t complaining. We’ve gone from being a purple state to full on red under Desantis.

I want to bring in smart and successful immigrants. I don't care who they vote, who their god is or isn't, or where they come from as long as they come here to be Americans.

We had a family move into our neighborhood recently from Kentucky. He's a military retiree and they have a special needs child. They looked for an area where they could afford to live on his retirement without having another job. They bought the house sight unseen.
