Why are Democrat states and cities losing population

[Hafar1014]

And create most of the fraud waste and theft. When we consider the larger number fleeing these states thats an out dated chart.

We can see what democrats opened the border and invited illegals to their cities. They are intended to replace populations loss resulting in less workers and tax revenues.


Heavily Democratic cities and counties have experienced significant population declines, with a net loss of 3.7 million residents between 2020 and 2023, often shifting to suburban, Republican-leaning areas. Key factors driving this trend include high costs of living, remote work flexibility, public safety concerns, and the search for affordable housing.

Key Trends and Data

• Major Population Shifts: From 2020 to 2023, Democratic-led counties experienced a net loss of 3.7 million people, while Republican counties gained 3.7 million.
• Shrinking States: Major Democratic-leaning states, particularly California, New York, and Illinois, have seen notable population declines.
• Fastest Shrinking Cities: Cities like St. Louis experienced rapid declines, losing over 21,000 residents between 2020 and 2024.
• Suburban Growth: People are moving to suburbs, often in swing states like Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, which are becoming more politically competitive.

Factors Driving the Exodus

• Cost of Living: High housing costs and taxes in urban areas are driving residents away.
• Remote Work: The rise in remote work has allowed residents to leave crowded cities for less expensive locations.
• Quality of Life: Concerns over crime and homelessness in cities have motivated residents to move to places perceived as safer and less crowded.
• Policy Differences: High energy prices and, in some cases, progressive policy environments are cited as factors for leaving states like California and Washington.

While overall national population growth remains low, the trend shows a clear migration from large Democratic urban centers towards smaller, often more conservative areas.

It's the absolute lack of community.


Why live in an expensive area where you have only hostile neighbors and very few friends?

In the more rural areas, where "strangers" are allowed that doesn't mean they are welcomed. Where lots of odd behaviors are tolerated that by no means intends they are accepted and promoted. In fact you can find yourself literally browbeat out of town.

In rural America if someone has true needs the community will support and provide....but the community also knows EVERYTHING about you as well. There is no illusion of privacy. No social divide either. Poor are known just as well as wealthy. Who is a pervert is just as well known as who is a prude. There are zero secrets in rural America.

BUT
There also is a huge sense of community.

It's no secret that senior citizens tend to move to warm climes for their retirement.

Many of our warmer states are red. This migration has little to do with politics.

The obvious answer is supply and demand.

There's not much demand to live in Arkansas or Oklahoma -- for obvious reasons -- so it's much cheaper to live there.

/—-/ A middle class New Yorker can move to an upper class neighborhood in any small town in Arkansas. The only downside is you have to live in Arkansas.

[LeftofLeft]

Lefties leave Democrat states because they don’t like being overtaxed anymore than Conservatives do. The problem is the Lefties still bring their politics and views on taxing everyone else thinking it won’t hit them.

Not really, NW Arkansass is expensive and rapidly growing since the moment we kicked Clintoon's ass outta Arkansass.
