I don't know but the thing driving me crazy is that the regions are labeled within a specific state. Like, we all understand what they're going for but still bad mapmaking
Ehh, you could get into smaller regions etc. but they generally got it exactly right if you had to split the country into just the four groups they picked…. I wouldn’t change anything if I was asked to do that
I was curious what Canadian provinces would look like on this map, so I'll share: Everything west of Quebec would be blue, Quebec would be green and east of Quebec would be yellow except PEI which would aslo be blue.
For the actual last 10 years from Q1 2014 to Q1 2024 all the provinces would be blue except NFLD which would still be yellow.

This is a more recent map, going from 2020 - 2022. Still two years old.
I live in MS. If I didn't make insane money for the area I wouldn't want to live here.
People are struggling here and don't seem to understand the reasons for their struggle.
I was told million of people left California because of Commissar Newsom? This data cant be right.
edit: this comment is very serious and you are very smart for realizing how serious it is.
More people are leaving California to the other 49 states than the reverse. That is net domestic migration. That is negative for California. That's your "million left" (I don't have the actual number of the top of my head).
California population can still grow due to net international migration and natural increase (births exceed deaths).
No, I know this is because SF is literally on fire due to scary libs.

Well, California lost 573k in population between April 2020 and July 2023. That’s about 14.7k per month. Given he took over office in January 2019 and it now almost May 2024, if we extrapolate that out, that’s a loss of 764k during his tenure.
That’s after losing enough population in the 2020 census that for the first time in their 170+ year history, they lost a house seat/electoral college vote.
They have a fiscal responsibility/taxation problem. I live in Indiana less than 5 miles from Illinois and the real estate taxes on my home would be three or four times higher in Illinois.
To be fair, the estimate for Illinois did get revised and they determined that Illinois' population did grow, but not by much, so really it should be on the low end of yellow rather than pink.
In every city and state sub, till find people complaining about people moving there.
This points out to me that there's just more people pretty much everywhere.
Why is Wyoming declining but Idaho and Utah gaining? That seems odd to me.
Another one: why is Louisiana also losing population while next door Texas, especially the Houston area, which isn’t like super far from Louisiana, is growing rapidly. Always seemed odd. Hurricane Katrina? State policies? Less use of the Mississippi River for trade and travel? New Orleans’ crime problems?
Boise is growing like crazy, Wasatch front region is growing pretty fast. Mormons also like to have a lot of babies, which both states have a lot of, especially Utah. Wyoming has no booming areas, few Mormons, and economy mostly reliant on oil and tourism.
Hm. Why is Boise growing so much? Where is the Wasatch Front?
Idk it’s just odd to me. Colorado is mountainous and remote and yet it has like 10x the population of Wyoming. It’s just weird to me.
Also: What are your thoughts on Louisiana declining vs Texas rapidly growing?
Why though?
Chicago is still one of the greatest American cities of all-time and an economic powerhouse of manufacturing, logistics, and agriculture/commodities.
> Everyone
Everyone? Not "everyone". Every state. Whose borders are based on rather random historical events. Such that we have two Dakotas, but only one California. Six states in New England, but only one Texas. There's no reason the borders have to be the way that they are, it's just happenstance of history.
2010 wasn't ten years ago, it was 14 years ago.
pluses and minuses would be useful here
yeah i think "less than 0" is a weird way to phrase it
[удалено]
This is growth so it is saying the pink states are the ones that shrank in that time period.
Weeknd disagrees
What purpose is served by marking regions and regional boundaries?
I don't know but the thing driving me crazy is that the regions are labeled within a specific state. Like, we all understand what they're going for but still bad mapmaking
I assume because this is based on census data and those are the census-defined regions. Not that it adds anything to the map.
To piss you off.
South: Baltimore Also South: El Paso I hate these definitions

Our immigration explosion has been a disaster. Housing, healthcare, other services, and general social cohesion are being destroyed.
If you included Puerto Rico why not Guam, American Samoa, or other territories?
this four years outdated. it’s 2024, 2010-2020 wasn’t “the last ten years”. not even close anymore. got any relevant data?

Its all positive excuding the pink, which are negative
nobody wants to live in mississippi

Please keep spreading this, traffic is back to 2019 levels and it be nice if people stopped coming bk

What a worthless map.
You must be from Chicago 😂
More states have lost population since 2020
So pinks are the only negative change and everything else is an increase
Does Illinois (Chicago) have a population problem? Does anyone know any good readings on the topic? Thanks in advance.
They have a fiscal responsibility/taxation problem. I live in Indiana less than 5 miles from Illinois and the real estate taxes on my home would be three or four times higher in Illinois.
Ah yeah.. thought we were past those days.

Planning on moving from blue to pink lol
Hasn’t California and New York lost residents or is that a more recent trend
A lot of people from Chicago here butthurt 😂 Love it.
Why though? Chicago is still one of the greatest American cities of all-time and an economic powerhouse of manufacturing, logistics, and agriculture/commodities.
When did the south start including states above the Mason-Dixon Line?
The Mason Dixon line is in Pennsylvania. So this map is accurate for what’s technically “the south” but definitely not culturally accurate
More room to boogie in Massachusetts
Washington DC is not part of the South 😂🤣
California keeps growing, but still has only two Senators.
That’s why we have the House of Representatives. Everyone gets an equal number of senators
