Yes, western and southern states are growing faster than northeastern states, this isn't new information. It's almost like that part of the country was settled first and then saw two Great Migrations in the 20th century. When those migrations ended in the 1970s, the population began re-orienting towards the south and west and away from the northeast and midwest.
- anoncoward111 8y agoI am becoming confused. 1) Do you believe people are leaving NY/NJ despite overall population rising? 2) Do you believe that of those people who are leaving, they are leaving because it's too expensive and crowded here? 3) Do you believe that of those people who are staying/moving here, do you think they are moving here because it is NOT crowded?
- moorhosj 8y agoHuh? I corrected your initial statement that population was falling. I never mentioned crowing or cost-of-living. I was simply explaining why other states are growing faster than NY/NJ and the rest of the northeast.
