populations ALWAYS shift around. Jobs? Weather? Closer to relatives? School? Lifestyle?

So when a huge area like say, #14 from the map above is down <1/2%? I'm not overly concerned.
At a compounded rate, it would take something like 144 years (rule of 72 calculation) for 1/2 the people to leave. That is without births, deaths, or new move-ins.

And since this is an analysis of CENSUS DATA, is this loss over a 10 year period? That is the interval between mandated census. (censi?)

I also like the idea of seeing where populations are increasing. That would be an increase OVER AND ABOVE the rate of increase in the USA without population shift.

Too much is never enough
