Fastest growing cities in the U.S. mostly red

All those poor fools in red cities must be losing their housing and land is cheap.
At least they have cops
I dont need cops or sunflower seed spitting contests in my neighborhood.

you have russian immigrants in your town? you prefer watermelon seed spitters? ---------both of those foods are GOOD FOR YOU
The only seed spitters I know are country white folk.
Fantastic!
 
I wonder how real estate prices are doing in Seattle, Minneapolis and New York? Nothing excites prospective home buyers more than seeing mobs taking over the streets.
I bet both places are still worth more than ILoveMySister Arkansas
You don't love your sister?.....what?...love yourself too much?....

I DON'T think THIS one is capable of loving anyone, especially himself/herself/it?.
 
This is interesting,...First California city is number 17

Experts might not agree on the “best” or the “right” recipe for rapid economic growth, but some cities know the key ingredients for long-term prosperity better than others. Patterns emerge within those cities, allowing us to identify what factors contribute to a lasting cycle of growth. The South and West currently seem to be attractive places to move, as the U.S. Census Bureau reports eight of the 15 cities with the largest population gains in 2018 were located in the South and six were in the West.

Some cities thrive even through hard economic times while others struggle. To determine where the fastest local economic growth has occurred in the U.S., WalletHub compared 515 cities of varying population sizes based on 17 key measures of both growth and decline over a period of seven years. Our data set ranges from population growth to unemployment rate decrease to growth in regional GDP per capita. Read on for our findings, expert insight from a panel of researchers and a full description of our methodologies

Nice try. Your #1 City isn't a City at all. It's a town of just over 86,000. It's a suburb of Ft Myers, Fl..

Your #2 has a population of just over 89,000 and is a suburb of Charleston, SC..

Saint George, UT is an exception. It's a free standing town of around 89,000 that depends on Tourism. But it continues about the same size.

One of the things that any city below 100K has is that any increase or decrease shows a large percentage number that really doesn't mean a damned thing.

Austin, TX is the only real standout. It's the only real Metro City with almost a million in population. And it's hard to defend that it's a strictly Republican controlled city. And on the list of Republican controlled Cities, guess what, Austin, Tx isn't on it. The only City in Texas of any size is Wichita Falls at just over 100K. Most of the rest are smaller than 30K. That means that Dallas Ft. Worth, Houston, just to name three, are all Democrat ran. But they aren't Democrat controlled anymore than the small "So Called" Republican towns are Republican controlled. Texas is a different breed and always has been.
These Are The 10 Most Conservative Cities In Texas For 2019
Near the bottom of the page it gives you the option to expand it to the top 100 cities.

There is one Republican controlled city in Texas that is somewhat a breath of fresh air. Georgetown sells off it's excess of Electricity. It uses more renewable than NG for electricity. I say, somewhat a success because when the City did the contracts, Renewable Energy was lower in cost than today and NG electricity was higher. That means that it sells for a loss. But Georgetown follows the rule that if it's controlled by the Republicans, it has less than 100K and not listed as a Metro.

It appears that Republicans shy away from most Metro Cities. Using Georgetown as an example, the larger the city, the more complex it gets the less the Republcans are able to manage it. I will say this, the larger a city gets, the more ANYONE and any group can manage it. Maybe the Republicans are just smart enough to know that they are incapable of managing a large city and don't want to get the blame. So they just do the small Cities and Towns. Case in point is the National Economics. During a Republican Admin, the National Debt grows. Under a Democrat, it either grows slower or shrinks. The last Republican that had a balanced budget was 2 years under Nixon who was a real live Fiscal Conservative. He was influenced by Eisenhower, the last of the Fiscal Conservative Presidents.

Today, a Fiscal Conservative is slandered with the name of RINO.

How do you define a city?
A city is a large human settlement. It can be defined as a permanent and densely settled place with administratively defined boundaries whose members work primarily on non-agricultural tasks. Cities generally have extensive systems for housing, transportation, sanitation, utilities, land use, and communication.

Nice try. Your #1 City isn't a City at all. It's a town of just over 86,000. It's a suburb of Ft Myers, Fl..

Your #2 has a population of just over 89,000 and is a suburb of Charleston, SC..

Saint George, UT is an exception. It's a free standing town of around 89,000 that depends on Tourism. But it continues about the same size.

One of the things that any city below 100K has is that any increase or decrease shows a large percentage number that really doesn't mean a damned thing.

Austin, TX is the only real standout. It's the only real Metro City with almost a million in population. And it's hard to defend that it's a strictly Republican controlled city. And on the list of Republican controlled Cities, guess what, Austin, Tx isn't on it. The only City in Texas of any size is Wichita Falls at just over 100K. Most of the rest are smaller than 30K. That means that Dallas Ft. Worth, Houston, just to name three, are all Democrat ran. But they aren't Democrat controlled anymore than the small "So Called" Republican towns are Republican controlled. Texas is a different breed and always has been.
These Are The 10 Most Conservative Cities In Texas For 2019
Near the bottom of the page it gives you the option to expand it to the top 100 cities.

There is one Republican controlled city in Texas that is somewhat a breath of fresh air. Georgetown sells off it's excess of Electricity. It uses more renewable than NG for electricity. I say, somewhat a success because when the City did the contracts, Renewable Energy was lower in cost than today and NG electricity was higher. That means that it sells for a loss. But Georgetown follows the rule that if it's controlled by the Republicans, it has less than 100K and not listed as a Metro.

It appears that Republicans shy away from most Metro Cities. Using Georgetown as an example, the larger the city, the more complex it gets the less the Republcans are able to manage it. I will say this, the larger a city gets, the more ANYONE and any group can manage it. Maybe the Republicans are just smart enough to know that they are incapable of managing a large city and don't want to get the blame. So they just do the small Cities and Towns. Case in point is the National Economics. During a Republican Admin, the National Debt grows. Under a Democrat, it either grows slower or shrinks. The last Republican that had a balanced budget was 2 years under Nixon who was a real live Fiscal Conservative. He was influenced by Eisenhower, the last of the Fiscal Conservative Presidents.

Today, a Fiscal Conservative is slandered with the name of RINO.


How do you define a city?
A city is a large human settlement. It can be defined as a permanent and densely settled place with administratively defined boundaries whose members work primarily on non-agricultural tasks. Cities generally have extensive systems for housing, transportation, sanitation, utilities, land use, and communication.

Orchard City wasn't a densely packed city. In fact, it was a maze of rural communities that banded together to get public services. You could be 2 miles away from your closest neighbor and still be in the "City". Town then City then Metro. I know what makes up a Metro and that is 100K or more population but the difference between a City and a Town is not so easy.

Cities and towns in the US are determined by the form of government they use, as defined by state law, rather than population.
